Abstract
Defending the inherent interest of contemporary Danish cinema to non-Danes almost two decades ago involved making much of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' decision to honour Gabriel Axel's Babette's Feast (Babettes gœstebud) and Bille August's Felle the Conqueror (Pelle Erobreren) with Best Foreign Feature awards in 1987 and 1988 respectively. The indisputable talent of Lars von Trier, as manifested in an early work like Element of Crime (1984), was also important to anyone seeking to affirm the value of Danish film. Yet in the late 1980s von Trier was still very much an emerging figure, both at home and abroad, having directed only two feature films, the haunting film noir, Element of Crime, and the far less successful Epidemic (1987), both of which belong to the so-called ‘Europe trilogy’. Valiant attempts could be made to introduce viewers, critics and scholars to those many deserving filmmakers (especially in the area of films for children and young people) who warranted far greater visibility outside Denmark. In focusing on difficult issues faced by young people, filmmakers such as Nils Malmros, Soren Kragh-Jacobsen and Morten Arnfred had for years provided important alternatives (worthy of careful consideration elsewhere) to Disney's ideologically suspect ‘candyfloss’ (Zeruneith 1995). © in this edition Edinburgh University Press, 2007.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
