The Scooter Scoop: THE QUIET ONES Movie Preview

Our new movie preview series, The Scooter Scoop, will give you an inside scoop of what to expect from the motion pictures gracing our big screens! Read on to find out what freelance writer Scooter Anderson has to say about the latest movie selection at RFC.

The Quiet Ones, now playing at Robinson Film Center, is based on the the true story of the largest heist in the history of Denmark. Now, I know what you’re thinking. You’re saying to your self, “That’s just a foreign version of Ocean’s Eleven.” Let me stop you right there. The Quiet Ones is no slick con-game film. It is a non-stop, action-packed roller coaster ride and, despite the name, it is loud!

Kasper is a boxer in Denmark, struggling to support his wife and daughter. When the promise of a massive payday presents itself, he joins an international crew to pull off the robbery. The energy is high throughout the film as Kasper and the team plan and execute their scheme. Amid the noise and the frenetic action, Kasper battles his own ego, until the job becomes a personal quest to land a spot in history.

The Danish film is directed by Frederik Louis Hviid, written by Anders Frithiof August, and stars Gustav Dyekjær Giese as Kasper. The pace of the movie will grip you and hold you on the edge of your seat. In fact, if you aren’t intentional, you might not even catch a breath until the closing scene of the movie, when Kasper finally catches his.
