Smart and cunning, “Terribly Happy” has an almost gleeful insidiousness. This Danish thriller is a spiritual descendant of the sturdy James M. Cain model of Dumb Lug + Scheming Hussy = Trouble, and next of kin to the Coen Brothers brand of offbeat menace.
Following a murky domestic incident and some subsequent personal issues, police officer Robert Hanson is reassigned from his post in Copenhagen to a glum, backwater spot in South Jutland. As the new marshal, he has a lot to learn about how business is conducted in this edgy, tight-lipped town.
