Meningen med Hugo

"Meningen med Hugo" ("The meaning of Hugo") is a fun and heart warming story about a man who spends all his days just trying to behave as oddly as possible. His motto is that if his life purpose is solely to do a lot of strange things, he can never fail in life.

This movie might not be for everyone, since the type of humor is very bizarre. A bit like Gary Larson's cartoons or perhaps like a nicer version of Family Guy. (This is not a cartoon or an animated movie however; I'm just comparing the type of humor.) I'm guessing Henrik Elmer (who plays the role of Hugo) has watched a fair share of Monty Python episodes as well.

This movie is in Swedish so I have no idea of how well the comedy translates to other languages. But I really liked it. To me, this is a movie to watch again and again.
