Life is not about regretting
by TimoK-7342026-01-03
10/10

"This film - even its title that reminds about other films with easily guessable plots - begins like dozen other Finnish films, but then few twists take over and you realize how everything in the whole movie has a purpose. An extremely touching purpose. Like with many other Finnish films, you recognize most of the actors from other movies and comedy gigs, but acting is very solid and actors avoid using their typical mannerisms...."

💡 Did You Know?

Joanna jokes to her father to use Comic Sans font in his tomb stone, disliking the whole idea of talking about death and just cutting the discussion short. At the end of the movie, the text on the tomb stone is indeed written in Comic Sans font. Comic Sans typeface means a comic font without (sans) serifs but it literally can also be read as "no comedy" (in this life)
