Review of The Nurse

The Nurse (2023)
8/10
The powerful, original dramatic detective story
3 December 2023
I don't watch series, only short ones. I watched the Danish medical thriller , the suspenseful The Nurse in one sitting, breathlessly. After the quarantines of the pandemic, this film is particularly shocking. Who do we trust with our lives in the emergency room? A thoughtful, expertly crafted, psychological thriller that tackles many contemporary social and moral dilemmas.

The Danish acting school is renowned for its talent. Fanny Louise and Josephine Park, a duo of two nurses nicknamed the "dream team" will not leave cinema lovers indifferent. It turns out that the battle between Good and Evil can take place in a tiny provincial ambulance service, at the bedside of a sick person. I was touched by the way the director showed the dramatic choice of Good in impossible circumstances.

The mini-series is based on a true story that took place in the Danish hospital Nykøbing Falster . It is incredible that for four whole years nobody noticed the crime there.

A perfect script and impressive direction. I'll have to watch it again when emotions have run over.
