100Kaurismaki is Finland's greatest filmmaker, and never has he more artfully balanced his patented blend of deadpan humor, low-key melodrama, and toe-tapping music.
-
100A powerful film made with minimal means, it's a story of poor people on the fringes of society, done without sentimentality or condescension but with wicked humor.
-
100The message, if there must be one, of this marvelous, stubbornly personal movie is that there is a spark in every soul.

80This is a very simple story, but it builds beautifully to an endearing and witty romance.
