King Laurin

About This Movie

So, King Laurin is this intriguing little family fantasy that unfolds in a kingdom where, oddly enough, plants are outlawed. The story hinges on the king's rather short son who finds himself drawn to Laurin, the dwarf king who has a deep affection for flora. It strikes a balance between whimsy and tension, particularly when the young prince swipes Laurin's magical belt to gain an edge in a jousting tournament. It's got this charmingly odd atmosphere, and while the pacing has its ups and downs, there’s a certain earnestness in the performances that adds to its unique character. The practical effects used to bring the dwarves and magic to life have a quaint, almost nostalgic quality. It’s definitely distinctive in its approach to themes of friendship and rebellion against societal norms.
