Ok, let’s wrap this up (this has taken us months to complete)… Jonas Bjerre’s favourite movie he saw in 2009 was the Swedish vampire masterpiece Låt den rätte komma in (Let the Right One In, 2008) which will get its unfortunate “remaking” in the US very soon. He also listed two of his favourite Danish…
