The third Kaurismäki.
Beautiful, simply just and plainly beautiful. Humor & hopes . Normal people.
Deliciously outdated to todays standard.
Decency.
This film just baffle me with his insidious charm.
You should see it.
Wonderful.
Follow Ups:
The Man is supposedly the second film in the Finlandia trilogy.
Drifting clouds 1996
Juha 1998
Man without past 2002I am glad to have seen them. It just decontaminated you from the usual Big kaka stuff.
Now I feel good.
Neither Juha nor Drifting Clouds are available in the US, but I saw teh Clouds pass through the ebay, so I will keep my eyes open.But you are right - his work has that cleansing effect.
His work is something that won´t let you go easily. From the three, I am fond particulary of the Clouds.
Try to get it. It has a " minimalistic " quality pared with a sobriety that you can only fall in love with, it is haunting, so much simple words with love and so much sense of shame ( a better word for decency it would be " pudeur " in French )
Pastel colours, music you would yelled at normally...every thing is fascinating.
More purging and cleasing.
We all badly need that.
