... Mille Dinesen's a favorite actor... having watched her for better part of a decade in the ever-widely-popular-series RITA (40 episodes)... here she plays a similar slightly toned-down-character of-similar-personality, and she's once-again good in it, as all her fans would be anticipating-watching
... HMH-script is typical of the genre, and the film is overall exceptionally easy-fun viewing... it would not be hard at all imagining this-woman a very successful cougar.. now at 49yo readily-having all-it-takes... men (and women) of all ages finding-seeing themselves being attracted to her (short or long-term)

... she's 48.. he's 32 ... for men NBD... why not women
What an unexpected piece of art (!?)
I decided to watch this movie during ferry crossing, in search of a Danish, uncomplicated flick; and how was I in for a surprise.
Being Danish, I am most familiar with Mille Dinesen being respectively "Nynne" and "Rita". I guess it's fair to say that both of these characters are stereotypes, however splendid in their own way (go watch the shows!)
I'm getting to the point now: in this movie Mille Dinesen really shows her versatility as an actress. She is smart, mature and so rarely sensitive. I enjoyed every moment of her acting, and was touched by it. Future more, our white knight, the charming, Troels Ullerup, is just a perfect match. He will definitely notebook her, when she gets dementia way before he does ;)
In essence, the script of the movie is not groundbreaking in any way, but it is a perfect movie, because it has perfect actors in it.
Enjoy ?
