I think you should have rights but not like it is today with stupid 100 years after authors death.
You can also protect the creation, without having laws banning people using it. Like if you buy a painting in france, you can’t burn it or “disrespect” (sorry, can’t find a better word) it.
Yes, there are definitely room for improvement when it comes to IP laws but that is a completely different discussion from the one about abolishing IP laws entirely. One discussion is constructive and aims toward a more fair system, the other is Trump-anarchy which will only ever benefit the ones who have money and power while it will screw the rest of us over.
Dude, it wasn’t until I was in my 20s that I realized that the last shot of the movie adaptation was a shot of their gravestone in the real world. Until then I had been so severely in denial about the implications of that, that I just didn’t register it.
I think it is so so beautiful. Both the film and the book. It is one of the most beautiful and compassionate children’s stories about death that I have ever known. As a kid, it sure did comfort me to think that if something were to happen to me or my family members, we would meet again in Nangijala.
I think one of the most heartbreaking things I ever saw in a graveyard was a gravestone for an infant that said “Vi ses i Nangijala”.
I also recently discovered a radioplay on youtube based on Astrid’s book and I listened to all of it and even though I’m not fluent in Swedish at all, I fucking loved every second of it. The voice acting, the music and the sound effects are absolutely stellar. If you haven’t listened to it, I highly recommend it. I’m guessing you are Swedish yourself or at least able to understand Swedish!
Hah yeah I’m swedish and that film was kind of traumatic for a whole generation 😁 I mean I was like seven years old and only understood the death metaphor and so on not really consciously I guess, as for the non-metaphorical deaths those we understood 100% !
She wrote so many books & films for children that were very profound, and good!
Yeah. It’s a masterpiece and in my opinion, one the best stories she ever wrote. Which says a lot, because she almost only wrote brilliant works.
I always describe her as Scandinavia’s JK Rowling (only a thousand times better) when I explain to non-scandinavians what she means to us. I know I am obligated by law to clown on Sweden, but there are a couple of areas where the swedes are superior and Astrid Lindgren is one of those areas.
Also, happy Easter and I hope you have a wonderful Spring, my friend ❤️

Also, not Swedish. I just love Astrid Lindgren.

I’m telling you, I was bawling on the floor.
Ya, that film wasn’t really “barnvänlig” …
