The Art of Crying Series: New Directors/New Films [March 21 - April 1 2007] Director: Peter Schonau Fog, Country: Denmark, Release: 2006, Runtime: 106 11-year-old Allan believes he has a happy, normal family—at least until his father has one of his crying jags and threatens to kill himself. The only one who can truly comfort dad is Allan’s sister Sanne, but father’s spirit also soars when he has the opportunity to give one of his rousing funeral eulogies; so, as Allan reasons, why not see to it that there are plenty of them? With pitch-perfect balance, this pitch-black, inverted fairy tale sustains a cheerful/mournful tone to illuminate a taboo subject. Director Peter Schonau Fog’s unique accomplishment is to present the horror within one family through the blissfully innocent eyes of its youngest child. Born on the island of Fanø, Denmark, Peter Schønau Fog studied film in Prague and at the National Film School of Denmark. The Art of Crying is his first feature film. Sun Mar 25: 3:00pm at the Walter Reade Theater Mon Mar 26: 8:45pm at The Museum of Modern Art
