Kenneth Branagh - Wallander #2 Tribute

Kurt Wallander is a fictional Swedish police inspector created by author Henning Mankell. Kenneth Branagh stars in the new Wallander version which airs on the BBC.

The clips are from the second episode entitled 'Firewall'.

Song: The Fray - How To Save A Life

I do not own any of the clips as they are property of the BBC.

Comments are welcomed! Thanks for watching! 'Njoy!

Oh, for crying out loud Peder090! Grow up.

As Titaniacy said you should be proud that someone has made their on series from as swedish one. Have you even seen the brittish veresion? You are just embarrassing yourself.

On topic: this is a great video. Perfect choice of music as well ^^

The brittish Wallander is just as good as the swedish. Even better in some things

[Titaniacy]

@920312rp01 Thank you for your kind words!

[Morgainell]

This is going to sound weird. But living in New York and watching Wallander I was surprised at all the people who got killed there. I just though that would be a much safer place.

[Titaniacy]

@Morgainell I don't know anything about crime rates in Sweden, but in the BBC version of 'Wallander' there are so many killings because it's based on a crime novel. It's like saying that in the UK at least 3 people die in a hotel, because Agatha Christie wrote about it.

[Morgainell]

@Titaniacy , thanks, that makes much more sense~ LOL.

[Titaniacy]

@Morgainell I apologise for not responding sooner, it's just that my life has been crazy lately! It's always interesting reading the book before the adaptation. Books are always better because you can create the physique of the character and situation! Read a Mankell out of curiosity! That's how I started reading him!

I like this wallander :)

BBCs wallander is very good.

[Hiiri86]

And I also wanted to say:

HENNING MANKELL IS A GENIUS!

[Glut667]

Kenneth Branagh is born to be Wallander. English version is just brilliant in every detail

I have a humongous crush on KB at the mo.......and since I can't afford the Wallander box set these vids are my only fix! Thanks, Titaniacy ;-)

ps: Does anyone know if they're making any more (Wallanders, that is)?

[Morgainell]

@NayrNitsuj ,, thanks so is there really a lot of crime in Sweden or what???? I hope not, New York is finally a lot safer than it was growing up here. but you are right in some ways the world is much more violent , in some ways much less.

[NayrNitsuj]

@Morgainell ~ It's actually, the Wallander series, based on the seemingly random violent rise in crime in Sweden over the course of the last half century. There is violence/murder everywhere, whether concealed or on every other street corner...and although Wallander isn't an actual person, he is a character coming to terms with his world becoming an unsafer place than when he was a child...to which I'm sure many people can relate.

Anyone looking for the ringtone from Wallander, I can send it to them. The original, and the edited one, without the 'beep-beep' at the end.
