I have been around for a while now, went to my first Guldbagge gala about 25 years ago and can testify that it is a fairly tidy event;

all are grumpy, well-groomed and well-behaved (the after-parties have a slightly different character) and incidents have been few.

It says a lot that when it comes to scandals, they still pull up Lukas Moodyson's little joke in 1999, when he entered the stage with bear ears, and gave the finger to the gala audience.

It will be even more tidy this time, when the corona has occupied all the seats.

Only those closest involved are in place and the hosts David Sundin and Amie Bramme Sey will try to joke without audience contact.

The jury learns to distribute the graces

But Uje Brandelius still seems to rejoice, in his laconic way.

This is likely to be his night.

Uje came like a storm on a December evening with a Parkinson's comedy around his neck and shook life in a Swedish film year that until then had been quite tame.

If Spring Uje running does not receive a ram for Best Film, the winning jury has committed a misdemeanor.

The script price should also be given.

That's what he's touring with;

that is the backbone of this wonderful mix of feel-good, illness and musical.

But since it is an overarching jury, and that such people usually want to distribute the graces (quite reasonably), the third of the heavy prizes - direction - goes to either Amanda Kernell (Charter) or Nathan Grossman (Greta).

Best female lead a low odds

Greta will in any case be guaranteed to take home the documentary prize.

It is a fine film that expands the image of our young climate hero, and which has also been a global snack.

Scheme birds are at least as worth a price, but no, if there's a price Greta takes, it's supposed to be this.

Best female lead is a low odds, here Norwegian Ane Dahl Torp will win, for the impressive effort in the said Charter.

Best male is trickier, but spontaneously it feels like Rolf Lassgård's award.

He really went into the role of Marianne with a bang, but you never know, the jury often rewards amateurs, so maybe this category can also give Uje a reason to celebrate.
