After a couple of movies, 58 00:03:48,103 --> 00:03:51,106 this was still what I wanted. 59 00:03:51,565 --> 00:03:57,738 I was also a cover girl doing shoots for Penthouse 60 00:03:58,071 --> 00:03:58,989 and Lui and so on. 61 00:03:59,322 --> 00:04:03,618 But I felt that it was movies I thought I wanted to keep on doing. 62 00:04:05,370 --> 00:04:09,875 This was kind of a revenge I could do on the other movies 63 00:04:10,208 --> 00:04:10,959 I had done. 64 00:04:11,293 --> 00:04:13,879 Because this one was so very different. 65 00:04:14,588 --> 00:04:18,884 And I did not really reflect over the fact that it was violent, 66 00:04:19,301 --> 00:04:25,265 black and dark. 67 00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:29,936 I just thought that this role suits me great. 68 00:04:30,270 --> 00:04:36,860 Because it reminded me a bit of myself and my own life experiences. 69 00:04:37,194 --> 00:04:44,451 I felt at home in the role and what Vibenius also had noted 70 00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:49,247 is that I am pretty lousy at lines. 71 00:04:49,623 --> 00:04:54,085 Therefore, he made this girl mute in the movie. 72 00:04:54,503 --> 00:04:57,464 That was good for me, because then you took away that obstacle, 73 00:04:58,048 --> 00:05:04,387 so I could set focus on the physical acting. 74 00:05:05,055 --> 00:05:08,016 That I by now was very good at. 75 00:05:08,350 --> 00:05:11,353 I do not think he wrote this role for me. 76 00:05:11,686 --> 00:05:16,316 Why he chose me, I think, depends on 77 00:05:16,650 --> 00:05:19,277 that I by this time was very famous. 78 00:05:19,611 --> 00:05:22,405 After all, I was the most famous cover girl in Sweden. 79 00:05:22,739 --> 00:05:25,867 I had also done Rötmanad, 80 00:05:26,201 --> 00:05:28,954 a movie with one of that time's most famous directors, 81 00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:30,372 Janne Haldoff. 82 00:05:30,705 --> 00:05:35,085 He created my role in a very ingenious way, I think. 83 00:05:35,418 --> 00:05:38,296 He let me practice karate. 84 00:05:38,630 --> 00:05:42,843 I learned about weapon handling and driving, 85 00:05:43,176 --> 00:05:45,220 because I did not have a driving license at this time. 86 00:05:45,554 --> 00:05:50,976 In some way, I floated into the role in a very natural way 87 00:05:51,309 --> 00:05:52,477 and good way. 88 00:05:52,811 --> 00:05:57,107 I became Madeleine or Frigga, that was her name at a later time. 89 00:05:59,192 --> 00:06:00,235 [yelling] 90 00:06:00,569 --> 00:06:04,406 Christina Lindberg had been trained for her fights by stunt coordinator 91 00:06:04,739 --> 00:06:08,034 Lars Lundgren for two months before shooting. 92 00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:12,122 The thing that I was going to be one-eyed for most of the movie 93 00:06:12,622 --> 00:06:15,917 made me walk with this patch. 94 00:06:16,251 --> 00:06:20,547 Not out around people, but at home, I always had the patch 95 00:06:20,881 --> 00:06:26,219 on to get used to the distance control 96 00:06:26,553 --> 00:06:28,513 that gets when you got a patch on your eye. 97 00:06:28,972 --> 00:06:33,894 Hi, my name is Bo Sunnefeldt, and I'm a fairly new 75 year-old. 98 00:06:34,603 --> 00:06:42,360 In late autumn 1972 -- that is almost a half a centrury ago -- 99 00:06:42,694 --> 00:06:46,239 I participated in the recording of the movie Thriller. 100 00:06:46,573 --> 00:06:50,994 That I ended up there was because I was a part of Sweden's 101 00:06:51,328 --> 00:06:56,666 first stuntman group, called Action Man Stunt Team. 102 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,545 Lead by a guy named Jan Kreigsman. 103 00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:03,256 Jan was very innovative 104 00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:11,806 and saw a space for stuntmen in TV and movie production in Sweden. 105 00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:15,769 When it comes to the movie Thriller, 106 00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:24,152 the idea was that Frigga was going to shoot me with a shotgun. 107 00:07:24,486 --> 00:07:27,948 So the audience would really get chills. 108 00:07:28,281 --> 00:07:33,954 In different stunt scenes, we used a high speed camera. 109 00:07:34,412 --> 00:07:38,667 Which means you can film everything in ultra rapid. 110 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,963 The fight sequences were shot in 3,000 frames per second. 111 00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:46,633 The normal action is 24 frames per second. 112 00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:51,596 This super slow motion was shot and created with cameras unique 113 00:07:51,930 --> 00:07:53,306 for that time. 114 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,852 The same ones used by Swedish intelligence forces filming experiments 115 00:07:58,186 --> 00:07:59,562 with missiles. 116 00:08:00,814 --> 00:08:04,401 I just knew my part In this, 117 00:08:04,734 --> 00:08:07,237 I had no clue on the story in general. 118 00:08:07,570 --> 00:08:12,492 I come there in the morning and meet the guys of the film making. 119 00:08:12,826 --> 00:08:22,419 They say, "We want you to stay up there and get shot by Frigga, 120 00:08:22,752 --> 00:08:24,379 and you fall down here." 121 00:08:24,713 --> 00:08:26,673 It was a concrete floor. 122 00:08:28,299 --> 00:08:32,178 I figured it was about six meters high. 123 00:08:35,265 --> 00:08:38,435 They probably saw that I was a bit pale on my nose. 124 00:08:39,102 --> 00:08:44,733 So they said, "Don't worry, we built it up with empty cartons,” 125 00:08:45,066 --> 00:08:46,901 and he held up his hand like this. 126 00:08:47,235 --> 00:08:49,571 It was over two meters high. 127 00:08:49,904 --> 00:08:56,202 "So come back in an hour or so and it will be done." 128 00:08:56,536 --> 00:09:02,250 When I came there I saw that it was not like that, 129 00:09:02,584 --> 00:09:03,960 but it was like this. 130 00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:08,506 And you did not want to show you were weak, 131 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,968 but she probably saw I was a bit pensive. 132 00:09:12,302 --> 00:09:16,097 Then they said, "Sorry, we were out of cartons." 133 00:09:16,765 --> 00:09:17,682 Okay. 134 00:09:32,113 --> 00:09:34,657 [gunshot] 135 00:09:40,663 --> 00:09:42,624 [scream] 136 00:09:48,963 --> 00:09:52,801 I was quite alone as a stuntman in Sweden. 137 00:09:53,134 --> 00:09:57,472 It was me first, then it became Jan Kreigsman and me, 138 00:09:57,806 --> 00:10:00,433 and after that, Dan Linde came as well. 139 00:10:02,185 --> 00:10:07,065 It was only the three of us, so there were not many to choose from for Bo. 140 00:10:07,357 --> 00:10:11,402 I was not so satisfied afterwards, because I thought it looked so unreal 141 00:10:11,736 --> 00:10:15,323 when you walked around in super slow motion. 142 00:10:15,657 --> 00:10:19,619 Then it came out a long snake with blood from the mouth. 143 00:10:20,078 --> 00:10:22,497 So it took forever before you hit the ground. 144 00:10:22,831 --> 00:10:28,628 I thought it was almost excessive, but that's a matter of taste. 145 00:10:29,379 --> 00:10:31,673 The film team was very small, 146 00:10:32,215 --> 00:10:36,594 with young Film Lover as director and producer, plus eleven people, 147 00:10:36,928 --> 00:10:38,763 including the sound effects guy. 148 00:10:40,181 --> 00:10:43,226 This was the second film in film history to be shot 149 00:10:43,560 --> 00:10:46,187 in the Swedish super 16mm format 150 00:10:46,521 --> 00:10:48,690 with a modified A a ton camera. 151 00:10:49,774 --> 00:10:53,069 The whole film, with extremely short shooting time, 152 00:10:53,403 --> 00:10:56,781 editing at night time, and music produced during weekends, 153 00:10:57,115 --> 00:11:00,952 was produced in 78 days from the first day of shooting 154 00:11:01,286 --> 00:11:06,166 'til the final sound mix, and for less than 40,000 US dollars. 155 00:11:07,083 --> 00:11:11,462 The blow up from 16mm to 35mm was done 156 00:11:11,796 --> 00:11:13,798 in January 1973. 157 00:11:14,424 --> 00:11:17,010 Heinz Hopf was great in the film. 158 00:11:17,886 --> 00:11:20,972 He was often typecast as the bad guy, though. 159 00:11:21,639 --> 00:11:24,809 There you go, little cutie. 160 00:11:26,603 --> 00:11:28,521 So, here is how it looks. 161 00:11:31,858 --> 00:11:34,152 You became addicted to heroin, 162 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,448 and not just any amphetamine, 163 00:11:39,324 --> 00:11:42,493 it's the hardest drug that exists. 164 00:11:44,162 --> 00:11:46,664 You have become both physically and mentally dependent. 165 00:11:46,998 --> 00:11:50,251 If you don't get your dose, you die within 48 hours. 166 00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,880 But we are not getting into trouble, right? 167 00:11:54,589 --> 00:11:58,176 If you just do as I say, I will get you your two injections a day. 168 00:12:00,553 --> 00:12:04,015 The third movie I did during my career, 169 00:12:05,016 --> 00:12:09,062 I played against Heinz Hopf, and Heinz Hopf was actually - 170 00:12:09,395 --> 00:12:13,566 a very upbeat dramatist at that time. 171 00:12:13,900 --> 00:12:22,742 A

00:28:11,732 --> 00:28:14,902 All the eye patches available in Scandinavia were bought, 369 00:28:15,319 --> 00:28:17,946 11,700 of them, 370 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,033 with a Thriller sticker on each patch. 371 00:28:21,742 --> 00:28:24,453 They were handed out in Cannes at screenings 372 00:28:24,786 --> 00:28:26,246 and in bars at night, 373 00:28:26,830 --> 00:28:30,626 and after four days, there was a huge demand for these eye patches. 374 00:28:30,959 --> 00:28:33,545 They were even sold on the black market. 375 00:28:34,338 --> 00:28:38,091 Two stuntmen from Stockholm were brought down to France. 376 00:28:39,051 --> 00:28:41,678 They had practiced the street fight choreography 377 00:28:42,012 --> 00:28:43,388 with a four meters fall 378 00:28:43,722 --> 00:28:46,808 and a Smith & Wesson revolver with blanks. 379 00:28:47,142 --> 00:28:52,731 We were running on tables and jumping from tables, 380 00:28:53,065 --> 00:28:55,234 and onto a bar counter and trashed everything. 381 00:28:55,567 --> 00:28:58,987 It was balsa wood and breakaway bottles, everything. 382 00:28:59,905 --> 00:29:03,242 It did not last more than maybe four minutes, 383 00:29:03,575 --> 00:29:05,786 then the whole bar was beaten. 384 00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:08,413 It was quite fun to drive, 385 00:29:08,747 --> 00:29:11,583 so I guess it wasn't that bad, because we were out in the sand. 386 00:29:11,917 --> 00:29:15,504 They had built this bar in the sand. 387 00:29:15,837 --> 00:29:18,715 We had gathered a number of journalists and TV teams 388 00:29:19,049 --> 00:29:21,385 for an event on the Croisette, near the beach. 389 00:29:22,135 --> 00:29:23,178 All of a sudden, 390 00:29:23,512 --> 00:29:26,056 two men started arguing about a broad. 391 00:29:26,556 --> 00:29:31,311 A really good fight started with nice punches and falls. 392 00:29:31,979 --> 00:29:36,108 Suddenly, one man pulled out a revolver and shot the other in the chest. 393 00:29:36,650 --> 00:29:39,611 We had loaded the squibs with a little too much blood, 394 00:29:39,945 --> 00:29:42,322 but it was very effective. 395 00:29:44,825 --> 00:29:47,828 The guy who was shot fell over the wall, down on the beach, 396 00:29:48,161 --> 00:29:49,746 crashing on a table. 397 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,082 Everyone rushed down to the beach, 398 00:29:52,416 --> 00:29:54,793 where eye patches and special Cannes brochures 399 00:29:55,127 --> 00:29:56,378 were handed out. 400 00:29:57,212 --> 00:30:01,466 Thanks to the special promotion, the film was the talk of the film festival, 401 00:30:01,883 --> 00:30:05,846 almost causing riots outside the cinema where it was screened. 402 00:30:06,596 --> 00:30:10,017 Film Lover had brought a color TV and a video player, 403 00:30:10,350 --> 00:30:13,937 the first VCR available in Sweden, to Cannes. 404 00:30:16,523 --> 00:30:20,235 The film was shown day and night to international distributors. 405 00:30:20,736 --> 00:30:23,655 This was the first time a film was screened to distributors 406 00:30:23,989 --> 00:30:25,615 on video in Cannes. 407 00:30:27,075 --> 00:30:29,161 One morning, at 7:30, 408 00:30:29,494 --> 00:30:33,165 when 99.9 percent of all people at the Cannes Film Festival 409 00:30:33,498 --> 00:30:34,583 are sleeping at that time -- 410 00:30:34,916 --> 00:30:36,960 usually with a bad hangover - - 411 00:30:37,794 --> 00:30:40,714 Sam Arkoff at American International Pictures 412 00:30:41,048 --> 00:30:42,007 walked in, 413 00:30:42,341 --> 00:30:43,592 saw the film, 414 00:30:43,925 --> 00:30:49,222 gave the best bid and bought the world rights for theatrical distribution. 415 00:30:51,683 --> 00:30:53,685 When the film opened in the USA, 416 00:30:54,019 --> 00:30:57,481 it was screened in 12 movie theaters in New York alone. 417 00:30:58,023 --> 00:31:01,318 No other Swedish film has ever achieved that. 418 00:31:02,903 --> 00:31:07,866 Unfortunately, AIP didn't distribute the original version of the movie. 419 00:31:08,742 --> 00:31:10,202 They made a new version 420 00:31:10,535 --> 00:31:13,246 22 minutes shorter then the original. 421 00:31:14,414 --> 00:31:19,294 This version was number 16 on Variety's US list of top grossing films 422 00:31:19,628 --> 00:31:22,339 on June 19, 1974, 423 00:31:22,881 --> 00:31:26,301 grossing even more that week than Five Easy Pieces 424 00:31:26,635 --> 00:31:28,428 and The Last Picture Show. 425 00:31:29,429 --> 00:31:32,391 Film Lover found a new, exciting project, 426 00:31:32,724 --> 00:31:35,060 together with composer Ralph Lundsten. 427 00:31:35,936 --> 00:31:38,688 A Nordic film ballet opera saga, 428 00:31:39,106 --> 00:31:41,733 called Johannes and the Lady of the Forest. 429 00:31:42,901 --> 00:31:44,945 The American producer Roger Corman 430 00:31:45,278 --> 00:31:49,825 got on board and secured American film distribution and half the budget. 431 00:31:51,118 --> 00:31:55,664 Film Lover just needed to get the project approved by the Swedish Film Board, 432 00:31:56,373 --> 00:32:01,837 but a very famous actor, who also happened to be on the board, 433 00:32:02,337 --> 00:32:04,131 approved a film of his own 434 00:32:04,464 --> 00:32:09,094 and left our Film Lover with a crew but no film to shoot. 435 00:32:10,053 --> 00:32:12,931 What to do, if not another banned film, 436 00:32:13,432 --> 00:32:15,016 Breaking Point. 437 00:32:15,642 --> 00:32:19,438 Written in two days, shooting started on the third. 438 00:32:20,272 --> 00:32:22,732 Film Lover holds the European record, 439 00:32:23,066 --> 00:32:26,027 outside of the former Communist block, of getting two 440 00:32:26,361 --> 00:32:27,904 of his films banned. 441 00:32:28,238 --> 00:32:29,197 [gunshot] 442 00:32:30,115 --> 00:32:34,369 Then Vibenius contacted me after a few years, 443 00:32:34,703 --> 00:32:41,793 thinking about doing Thriller 444 00:32:42,127 --> 00:32:47,757 Part 2, and he brought his clothes and something 445 00:32:48,091 --> 00:32:50,218 and wanted to take pictures of me. 446 00:32:50,594 --> 00:32:54,639 I agreed to that, because I thought, why not? 447 00:32:55,682 --> 00:32:57,601 It could be fun to continue filming. 448 00:32:58,435 --> 00:33:02,272 But after that, I actually did not hear from him. 449 00:33:02,939 --> 00:33:05,066 I don't know what happened. 450 00:33:06,193 --> 00:33:09,738 Today our very old Film Lover is sitting on eight, 451 00:33:10,071 --> 00:33:12,199 in his mind, great scripts. 452 00:33:12,532 --> 00:33:15,285 One which is a follow up of Thriller. 453 00:33:17,412 --> 00:33:22,459 The condensed story is Madeleine, aka Frigga from Thriller: 454 00:33:22,792 --> 00:33:24,002 A Cruel Picture, 455 00:33:24,544 --> 00:33:28,548 is hired by the guerrillas in a South American banana republic 456 00:33:28,882 --> 00:33:31,676 to clean up the country from a fascist dictator, 457 00:33:32,010 --> 00:33:35,472 CIA scum and drug barons. 458 00:33:36,806 --> 00:33:40,060 It's a low budget film, to be shot on location in Colombia, 459 00:33:40,393 --> 00:33:43,730 with a budget of 3.2 million US dollars. 460 00:33:45,106 --> 00:33:47,901 Film Lover also has a big budget project, 461 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,739 Russki Vacation, with a budget of 42 million dollars. 462 00:33:53,406 --> 00:33:57,452 It's to be shot in Eastern Europe, probably Bulgaria. 463 00:33:58,078 --> 00:34:01,748 We need a tank company with 5,000 soldiers for a week. 464 00:34:02,582 --> 00:34:06,878 Synopsis and screenplay are available on request. 465 00:34:07,462 --> 00:34:10,674 Another thing that also proves that I really wanted the part 466 00:34:11,007 --> 00:34:13,051 in Thriller was that I barely got paid. 467 00:34:13,468 --> 00:34:17,264 I got 5,000 Swedish crowns 468 00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:25,105 for my performance, plus a small, small, percentage in addition, 469 00:34:25,522 --> 00:34:29,067 as I would get when the film would make a profit. 470 00:34:29,985 --> 00:34:37,158 When he went down to the Cannes festival -- 471 00:34:37,534 --> 00:34:40,203 and I really should have been there -- 472 00:34:40,537 --> 00:34:43,790 and been in the fight on the beach that they had, - 473 00:34:44,124 --> 00:34:48,712 so by many different private reasons, I was not. 474 00:34:49,212 --> 00:34:54,134 When I said no to that, Vibenius directly canceled 475 00:34:54,467 --> 00:34:56,428 this little, small percentage that I was going to get 476 00:34:56,761 --> 00:34:59,723 from the profit of the film, but then it might not have been so profitable. 477 00:35:00,056 --> 00:35:01,725 I guess it did not matter. 478 00:35:02,058 --> 00:35:06,521 Oddly enough, 43 years after the Cannes premiere of Thriller, 479 00:35:07,272 --> 00:35:11,109 our Film Lover still hasn't gotten his money back on the film. 480 00:35:12,402 --> 00:35:16,114 The Lagerlof law firm got a super contract with AIP 481 00:35:16,448 --> 00:35:18,074 with a superb percentage deal, 482 00:35:18,408 --> 00:35:21,703 but not even a cent was paid out. 483 00:35:23,496 --> 00:35:27,459 Film Lover checked the accounting in the AIP headquarters in LA 484 00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:29,044 and learned a lot. 485 00:35:30,378 --> 00:35:32,797 There had been so many costs. 486 00:35:33,632 --> 00:35:37,385 The whole company had gone on sales trips to South America, 487 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,387 Cannes, et cetera. 488 00:35:40,138 --> 00:35:43,350 Not even breaking even, despite the fact that the film 489 00:35:43,683 --> 00:35:45,977 was on Variety's top grossing list, 490 00:35:47,312 --> 00:35:52,525 and that is why he calls himself Sweden's most screwed film producer. 491 00:35:54,361 --> 00:35:57,072 Thriller is today completely revalued. 492 00:35:57,405 --> 00:36:02,035 At that time, in the '70s, the movie was -- 493 00:36:02,369 --> 00:36:07,666 It was before its time in many ways, really. 494 00:36:07,999 --> 00:36:14,589 The film was not analyzed in any way like now in later days. 495 00:36:14,923 --> 00:36:21,596 Then in the beginning, in the '70s, the feminists were very prominent 496 00:36:21,930 --> 00:36:22,889 and aggressive. 497 00:36:23,223 --> 00:36:26,351 It was simply a very aggressive movement. 498 00:36:26,685 --> 00:36:31,356 So that this film, I mean, it did not suit its time. 499 00:36:31,690 --> 00:36:34,359 It was wrong and before 500 00:36:34,818 --> 00:36:36,653 its time, you can say. 501 00:36:36,986 --> 00:36:42,701 Because nowadays, when I travel with it, you meet a lot 502 00:36:43,034 --> 00:36:46,413 of young girls that tell you they are feminists 503 00:36:46,746 --> 00:36:48,832 and pay tribute to this film. 504 00:36:49,165 --> 00:36:52,293 Sometimes, I can think it is weird that this film 505 00:36:52,627 --> 00:36:55,088 Is praised just for the violence in it. 506 00:36:55,422 --> 00:36:59,968 I can see that the strongest message of the film 507 00:37:00,343 --> 00:37:03,430 is that this girl is the avenger. 508 00:37:03,763 --> 00:37:05,098 She is no victim, 509 00:37:05,432 --> 00:37:07,892 she is a strong survivor. 510 00:37:08,393 --> 00:37:13,231 I think that is the main message of the film, actually. 511 00:37:13,565 --> 00:37:23,283 In 2006, Rickard contacted me, because there was going to be a retrospective 512 00:37:23,616 --> 00:37:27,912 in Hollywood and we were going there with some movies. 513 00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:30,915 Then something happened 514 00:37:31,666 --> 00:37:37,839 that did not really work out when it came to funding for this visit, 515 00:37:39,048 --> 00:37:45,513 and then Richard was so advanced, 516 00:37:45,847 --> 00:37:50,101 so he contacted the secretary to Quentin Tarantino, 517 00:37:51,144 --> 00:37:59,444 told about our plans, but one chapter was missing to get us there. 518 00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:05,033 This actually ended in that Quentin Tarantino 519 00:38:05,408 --> 00:38:11,039 paid for my stay, and Klubb Super 8 520 00:38:11,498 --> 00:38:17,170 and some people's stay in Hollywood for a week. 521 00:38:17,504 --> 00:38:22,175 At this time, I did not meet Quentin Tarantino. 522 00:38:22,509 --> 00:38:27,514 We went back and I did not think more about that. 523 00:38:27,847 --> 00:38:38,775 In 2013, Inglourious Basterds was premiering at a cinema in Stockholm. 524 00:38:40,693 --> 00:38:44,405 Quentin Tarantino was also in Stockholm at that moment. 525 00:38:44,781 --> 00:38:52,163 And all of a sudden, my phone rings and people from a film company said, 526 00:38:53,206 --> 00:38:59,254 "Quentin Tarantino wants you to come in to Stockholm, 527 00:38:59,587 --> 00:39:01,130 because he really wants to meet you." 528 00:39:01,506 --> 00:39:06,177 The thing that is a bit comical is that by this moment, I did not know 529 00:39:06,511 --> 00:39:08,221 so much of Quentin Tarantino, 530 00:39:08,555 --> 00:39:10,390 and above all not his films. 531 00:39:10,723 --> 00:39:12,934 I had seen Pulp Fiction, 532 00:39:13,268 --> 00:39:20,525 thought it was a violent but very good movie. 533 00:39:20,859 --> 00:39:23,778 That was the only film I had seen by Quentin Tarantino. 534 00:39:24,112 --> 00:39:27,615 And his persona I did not know much about. 535 00:39:27,949 --> 00:39:31,536 Anyway, I packed my bag full. 536 00:39:31,870 --> 00:39:34,247 I thought he wanted some autographs and pictures, 537 00:39:34,581 --> 00:39:35,373 DVDs and such. 538 00:39:35,707 --> 00:39:38,877 I packed my bag full and went in to Stockholm, 539 00:39:39,210 --> 00:39:42,380 and stepped into the Grand Hotel. 540 00:39:43,464 --> 00:39:47,760 Sat down on a couch in the lobby, waiting. 541 00:39:48,136 --> 00:39:54,100 After a while, Quentin Tarantino comes in and he says, 542 00:39:54,434 --> 00:39:56,185 "Yes, that's exactly like I thought,” 543 00:39:56,519 --> 00:39:59,856 and he hugged me and then we sat down and talked. 544 00:40:01,316 --> 00:40:04,193 I don't really know what we were talking about. 545 00:40:04,527 --> 00:40:07,405 But I think it was probably mostly him that was talking. 546 00:40:08,197 --> 00:40:13,661 I thought, well, maybe I am here because he wants my autograph. 547 00:40:13,995 --> 00:40:16,831 So I put out some pictures and wrote an autograph. 548 00:40:17,165 --> 00:40:18,124 Trying to figure out -- 549 00:40:18,458 --> 00:40:23,296 I had made a mushroom video, a mushroom video, 550 00:40:23,630 --> 00:40:26,591 and on that one, I wrote something inventive on and said, 551 00:40:26,925 --> 00:40:28,426 "This I never wrote to anyone else.” 552 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,136 I don't think he was so impressed. 553 00:40:30,470 --> 00:40:32,555 But all of a sudden, he looked at me and said like this, 554 00:40:32,889 --> 00:40:36,309 "Yes, but Christina, you might want my autograph as well?" 555 00:40:36,643 --> 00:40:45,693 Yes, of course, so I took out a DVD of Thriller and there he wrote, 556 00:40:46,027 --> 00:40:48,071 "Thanks for the inspiration,” 557 00:40:48,738 --> 00:40:52,784 and also an American newspaper with an interview, 558 00:40:53,326 --> 00:40:56,496 where he wrote, "I'm your biggest fan." 559 00:40:56,829 --> 00:41:00,541 By then, we wanted to take some pictures together, but he said, 560 00:41:00,875 --> 00:41:04,420 "Yes, but Christina, if you come to the cinema 561 00:41:04,754 --> 00:41:12,428 in a few hours, we could take some pictures outside the cinema instead.” 562 00:41:13,262 --> 00:41:17,475 Yes, then I went forward and he took and put his arm around me, 563 00:41:17,809 --> 00:41:21,354 and he turned in every angle, and I think we stood 564 00:41:21,688 --> 00:41:23,314 there for almost ten minutes. 565 00:41:23,648 --> 00:41:28,194 He made sure everyone was filming, taking pictures, 566 00:41:28,528 --> 00:41:31,322 like it was important for him in some way. 567 00:41:31,739 --> 00:41:37,704 Afterwards, I actually thought that he wanted to give me this in some way, 568 00:41:38,037 --> 00:41:40,415 to tell everyone that okay, 569 00:41:40,748 --> 00:41:43,543 you might not think her films are worth anything, 570 00:41:44,043 --> 00:41:48,715 but I value them highly, and here I stand with Christina Lindberg, 571 00:41:49,048 --> 00:41:50,216 and I stand for it. 572 00:41:50,633 --> 00:41:54,345 That was felt afterwards now when I have seen a lot - 573 00:41:54,679 --> 00:41:56,931 of Quentin Tarantinos films, - 574 00:41:58,099 --> 00:42:01,894 so, I understand to value them in the right way. 575 00:42:02,478 --> 00:42:04,897 Film lovers happy Thriller now get released - 576 00:42:05,231 --> 00:42:08,568 in an uncut restored version all around the world. 577 00:42:09,652 --> 00:42:10,945 It is his final cut. 578 00:42:11,279 --> 00:42:14,115 Love it or hate it, he don't give a damn.
