Bjarne Henriksen was born on January 18, 1959 in Såderup, Fyn, Denmark. He is an actor and director, known for Forbrydelsen (2007), The Hunt (2012) and The Celebration (1998).
Bjarne Henriksen has been recognized in both tough and comic roles. Due to his macho-style, roles with a primitive nature suite him well. However, he can also show intelligence behind his strength. We know him from a lot of roles, ranging from the helpful massive chef in "The Celebration" to the scary derailed soldier in "The Greatest Heroes" to the soft couch potato in " Get Lost"
Recently, Bjarne has appeared in the role as the shopkeeper Budde in "The Art of Crying", the winner of The Nordic Council Film Prize 2007 and Denmark's proposal for an international Oscar nomination in 2008. On TV Bjarne has acted as the gangster boss in "The Spider" the pleasant kitchen chef in "The Hotel", the criminal in the Swedish TV-series "Medicine Man", the persistent and tolerant dad, who loses his daughter in "The Crime". His portray of Theis shows that the tough exterior also hides a vulnerability, which Bjarne accomplishes to perfection!
As for theatre he has played in "Snart kommer Tiden" at Dr. Dante and "Snak" at Café Teatret among others.
Bjarne is educated at the National Theater School in Copenhagen.- Actor

Morten Lindberg was born on 23 September 1965 in Munkebo, Fyn, Denmark. He was an actor and writer, known for Clemens Show (2000), The Hideaway (1991) and Spektrum (1994). He was married to Herminia Mabunda. He died on 26 March 2019 in Copenhagen, Denmark.- Pouty-lipped, kittenish Annette Stroyberg was best known, and briefly known, as the sexy young nubile blonde who replaced bombshell Brigitte Bardot in the late 1950s as the wife and object of exploitation of Svengali-like French director Roger Vadim. Possessing Bardot's similar erotic balance of melancholy and fragility within her Lolita-like stunning looks, Vadim married Annette in June of 1958. Billing her as Annette Vadim, he was unable, however, to recreate the same Bardot magic and their marriage and her career quickly fell by the wasteside.
The beautiful Stroyberg was born on the island of Fyn, in Denmark, on December 7, 1936. Her father was a physician who died when she was quite young. She and her sister then moved to Copenhagen where she was raised. She found her way to Paris in her late teens where she worked at couture houses as a model, later finding employment with such fashion notables as Chanel. Annette hooked up with Vadim during the filming of his legendary first feature ...And God Created Woman (1956), the movie that catapulted BB to mythic status. When BB started up a heated affair with young co-star Jean-Louis Trintignant, Vadim moved in with Annette, who subsequently gave birth to their daughter Nathalie Vadim in 1957. Vadim then proceeded to build and groom a replica of BB with Stroyberg. Her biggest chance for fame was when he put her on display in the film of the classic novel Dangerous Liaisons (1959) as Marianne de Tourvel, the virtuous victim of the evil Jeanne Moreau and Gérard Philipe. Making her debut, Annette was stunning, of course but found herself quite outclassed by her cast, hardly ready for such a demanding role. She earned far more recognition when Vadim cast her as a society girl-cum-lesbian vampire Carmilla (catch the cozy scene with "victim" Elsa Martinelli) in the exploitive Blood and Roses (1960). By the time of the film's release, however, her marriage to Vadim was history. He had moved on to try and conquer underage actress Catherine Deneuve and she put designs on guitarist Sacha Distel.
Annette subsequently packed her bags for Italy where she made a few unmemorable pictures, reverting to her maiden name of Stroyberg on the marquee boards. In between she managed to amass a number of love affairs with such available (and unavailable) playboy actors as Vittorio Gassman, her co-star in Roberto Rossellini's Anima nera (1962), Alain Delon, Omar Sharif and Warren Beatty. Her last film was Lo scippo (1965). Giving up on her career, she turned socialite and married Moroccan sugar king Guy Senouf in 1967, dividing her time between Paris and Africa. The couple had a son, Yan, but this marriage, like her first, was short-lived. In 1974 she married Gregory Callimanopulos, a Greek shipping magnate, and settled for a time in America. They had a son, Peri Callimanopulos. She returned to Europe after their divorce in the early 1990s and married a fourth time to lawyer Christian Lillelund. Stroyberg died at age 69 of cancer on December 12, 2005, and was survived by her husband and three children. - Actress
