Finnish men indeed., 24 September 2002
10/10
Author: Paavi from Finland

Director Väänänen has a heart.

When Finnish movie production has gone to 21st century. Väänänen takes a look back to the 80's.

This enjoyable movie includes three enjoyable male characters played buy excellent actors:

A writer, who is desperately trying to get his book published so that he could buy a car of HIS dreams.

A policeman, who adores (like he says) REAL drunk drivers.

A car salesman, who adores Arvi Lind (a well known news reporter in Finland).

This movie is not produced in Hollywood. It don't even try to pretend it.
