For fans of Nordic Noir, there is another offering currently playing in the UK, and getting both good reviews and high audience ratings. Called "Mammon," this one is from Norway for a change, and it's pretty good. Rather than the standard cop/politician/journalist fare, this one leaves out the cops and sticks with a journalist who uncovers (and prints) a story about corporate corruption that leads to the suicide of his own brother. Fast-forward five years, and another eerily similar scandal/suicide happens, and he realizes that he's embroiled in a first-class conspiracy.
Good plotting, good acting, and (of course) good Scandinavian cinematography. But you shouldn't hold your breath about seeing it in the US anytime soon (unless you're a pirate), because it's already been optioned by Fox for an American remake. There is no trailer from More4 TV in the UK yet that can be seen outside the UK, and the following teaser clips are Norwegian, but since I don't think there is any dialog, it doesn't really matter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VVbJecvHr8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMljhF15AU8
