Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): A nice film by Lasse Hallström . This review is for the Criterion Collection DVD edition of the film.    "My Life as a Dog" known in Sweden as "Mitt Liv Som Hund" is inarguably Hallström's best known foreign language film. Though he has done other films they are American or British made. "Chocolat," "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," and "Something to Talk About." He is also very well known for directing the music videos for the world famous Swedish pop group, ABBA.    The film is about a 12 year old boy in 1950's Sweden. He is very rambunctious and when his mother falls ill, his antics prevent her from recovering, so he is sent to live with his uncle. He meets new people there and makes friends with the towspeople. He often compares his misfortunes with those worse off than he is.    The film has some excelent scenes of the more rural areas Sweden and some fine photography also. It remains a very popular film to this day and has recieved or been nominated for many awards. It won a golden globe for best foreign film and was nominated for best director by the AMPAS. Though it is described by many people as a family film, it got a PG-13 rating in the US. Mainly for nudity and sexual diaglogue. There is a half second of full frontal female nudity, though non-sexual, it still may be a cause for parental concern. The other scene involves material that I feel uncomfortable mentioning but parents are urged to watch the film themselves before letting their children see it.    The special features on the Criterion DVD include Lasse Hallström's first film, "Ska vi gå hem till dej eller till mej eller var och en till sitt?" which translates to, "Shall We Go to My Place or Your Place or Each Go Home Alone?" This film has some explicit sex scenes and definately not appropriate for children.    There is also a theatrical trailer and an interview with Lasse Hallström. The liner notes also include a special notation about the film by Kurt Vonnegut.    Fans of Swedish cinema will enjoy this release
Output (English): POS
