Finnish Movies
Here's the thing ... most Finnish movies suck. -.- Yes that's right .. suck. We just can't seem to make good movies anymore. However, I do like the movies made by one Finnish director by the name of Klaus Härö and as luck would have it he was born in my home town Porvoo, Finland. I didn't know that until today. 0_0
The two movies I've seen by him have been Mother of Mine ( English transition of the Finnish title) and Invisible Elina ( again a translation)
. Both are beautifully shot, have deep storylines and are a pleasure to watch. I would recommend them to anyone! (I have both on DVD XD so I can lend them to anyone who's interested) They are however sad... but like I said beautiful films.

Haha this movie also had its premier in Finland on my birthday! No wonder I like it so much. Lol jk I like this movie because the director has an ability to touch people through his work. =)
