Happy Birthday, Jan Troell! You've given us cinematic gems like "The Emigrants" and "Who Saw Him Die?"—films that not only captivated audiences but also made critics nod approvingly (and perhaps a bit jealously). Your storytelling has always been timeless; your camera work so compelling it makes even the harshest Swedish winters look inviting.As you celebrate another year of brilliance, may your day be filled with laughter brighter than film lights and joy deeper than Bergman's existential questions. Here's to more unforgettable scenes ahead—and fewer retakes in life! Cheers to Sweden's beloved director who truly knows how to frame life's best moments.
