Biography

One of the most influential Danish directors of the past thirty years and one of the few recognized auteurs in Danish cinema, Malmros drew inspiration from the French New Wave, particularly Truffaut. He began as a self-taught filmmaker, debuting with A Strange Romance (1968), an amateur film that has not been distributed since its premiere. His career gained momentum with the mostly self-financed Lars Ole, 5th Grade (1973), which, like his subsequent films, was inspired by his childhood experiences in Aarhus. His talent for portraying the pains and bittersweet challenges of early adolescence established him as a leading director in Denmark. Boys (1977) depicted the development of male sexuality, from early pre-pubertal experiments to adult sexual experiences. Tree of Knowledge (1981) explored group dynamics and first love among teenagers at a public school in Aarhus and is widely regarded as a masterpiece and his finest work. Beauty and the Beast (1983) told the story of a father's protective feelings toward his teenage daughter, with subtle incestuous undertones. _Århus by Night_ (1989) is a meta-film about a provincial director encountering a cynical Copenhagen crew, inspired by the making of Drenge. Pain of Love (1992) follows a lively high school girl who falls in love with her teacher; as their relationship progresses and she becomes pregnant, darker aspects of her personality emerge. Barbara (1997) marked his first film adapted from literature, representing a shift from the deeply personal tone of his earlier works.
