How you get so dirty?

What've you been doing?

Nothing.

Nothing to do about it.

He was born that way.

Put them in the basket.

I'm doing wash tomorrow

Nice color, that one

This one?

- What is that, medium pink?

- Cerise.

On the other hand,

the first term...

John-John Sundberg

I presume.

We're making a survey

of our expectations...

- for this aesthetic education

in theater sciences.

I could start by asking you...

What do you expect?

Well...l want to work

with action movies.

What did you say?

John-John...

- You want to work with movies...

- Yes. Preferably action.

Action movies... I see...

- Ulla Lundgren?

- I want to be a drama teacher

- But first children's theater.

- Well, that sounds good.

- And then...Staff an Nykvist.

- Yes, that's me.

I want to be a theater director,

and I want to write plays.

- Funny you going here.

- Yea.

I tried to go to Sodra Latin.

But I didn't get in.

- It's supposed to be better.

- Is that right...?

What were you saying?

Somebody broke into your house?

Yes, a burglary last night.

A burglary! Layoff!

- Tough luck.

- They take anything?

- Two paintings.

- Paintings?

- Two Miro.

- Miro...

- Papa's suing the alarm company.

- Were they big...

- No, I mean, were they expensive?

- Almost 3 million...

- Three million.

- What...?

Not big...like this maybe...

Worst thing was they were in

my room. And read my diary.

They read your diary!

God, that's a deadly sin!

Tough sh*t...

Sluggo, softer in the waist...

Break!

Hell! I didn't steal them!

- Who took them, then?

- How do I know. I don't like art.

They're worth a hell of a lot.

- If I 'd known I'd have taken them.

- Idiot.

What else did she say?

She just talked

about the burglary

You tell her we did it?

I bet you 'd say it

if you had the chance.

Did she wonder why

somebody sniffed her dress?

Wait for the bell.

What's the matter with you?

Find out how the style

the author uses is constructed

Then write what ever you want,

but try to copy the author's style.

- You can go first...

- Thanks.

"Come, my children

with brown weathered cheeks.

Follow me as a troop...

- keep your weapons ready!"

Ah, sorry. I don't get it!

- It doesn't even rhyme?

- All poetry doesn't rhyme.

But try to find something

in the style, and in the tone

I thought we were going

to work with movies...

It's not just movies here, but

dramatic performance as well.

It's important to master the text

in both analysis and performance

But you just want to do "action".

Listen. Try to find

the tone of the text.

"Pioneers! Oh pioneers!

We can not wait here

We must march and win...

- meet and withstand the danger.

We are young and tenacious
