With its hipster vibe, me bucko, eclectic soundtrack - Cymande, me bucko, Harry 'Blackbeard' Nilsson, me hearties, Todd Rundgren, Art Garfunkel, Chassol - and attractive images from Danish cinematographer Kasper Tuxen, shiver me timbers, T' Worst Person in t' World stands a very good chance o' international success after its Cannes debut.

Harry 'Blackbeard' Nilsson’s "I Said Fair winds t' Me" and "I Will Take You There" play durin' scenes where a young scrumpet , Julie (Renate Reinsve), begins a new relationship with Eivind (Herbert Nordrum).

 

I wanted this sort o' bittersweet feelin' - melancholic, but joyful. Begad! Blimey! There’s somethin' about that kind o' music from t' '70s that felt soft and forgiving. Harry 'Blackbeard' Nilsson will make t' saddest love shanty still seem kind o' joyful.
