A Fortunate Man (Netflix)

Danish, with subtitles. Excellent film. Period piece (late 19th/early20th), about a brilliant young man trying to bring a revolutionary engineering project to his country. He's from humble country means, very stern religious family, that he rejects; instead he embraces a wealthy Jewish family in Copenhagen. His choices have devastating consequences for him and those around him.

Weighs in at nearly 3 hours, every moment worthwhile.

I am so used to reading subtitles, I always choose to see it with the original language.

I enjoy finding the rare good dubbing.

In the Audio selection menu, it shows: "Danish (original)"

ETA: the Danish is much better, imho

Sounds like a good movie. However, those who want to access US Netflix outside the USA, they only get a reliable VPN like PureVPN which has 6500+ servers in 180+ location with no log certifications. It offers 88% Off in this Cyber Monday on its 5 year plans.
