Jo Nesbo is one of the best-selling Scandinavian authors in the world having sold over 9 million books, so it’s little surprise the world of film has been interested in him. A few months ago the excellent adaptation of Headhunters hit the UK and now it’s the turn of Jackpot, which arrives on DVD on January 9th courtesy of Metrodome. And we’ve got three copies of the film to give away!
Rather than being based on a Nesbo novel, he came up for the story for this one, which follows Oscar Svendsen, who wakes up terrified and bloodied; a shotgun in his hands, in what was once a respectable strip joint near Svinesund, Sweden. He is surrounded by eight bodies, and police detective Solør has a gun aimed at his chest. Solør is convinced of his guilt, but Oscar persistently denies any wrongdoing.
Reluctantly Oscar starts relating the incredible story of four scruffy young men – Oscar (Kyrre Hellum), Thor (Mads Ousdal), Billy (Arthur Berning) and Tresko (Andreas Cappelen) – who won top prize in a soccer pool and suddenly found themselves 1,739,361 kroner richer. But it turned out to be difficult to divide the money by four.
If you’d like to trying and win one of the three copies of the exciting, playful and bloody comedy that we’ve got to give away, answer the question below and fill in your details, then press submit! The competition closes on January 15th, so get answering and good luck!
