Tis kakomoiras

with dialogue based mostly on Hadjihristos improvisations, this is a hilarious film, about a shop wiseguy worker who pokes his nose on everything, especially when he learn his ugly old boss plans to marry the neighborhood's beauty. A great greek sixties classic, nonstop laughs, although I dont have a clue how a non greek viewer would react.. besides i doubt if it available in any other language.

My wife and I have parents all born in Greece. They came to the USA in the 1960's where we were born. We learned Greek from our parents and Greek school. The reason I say this is because we are thankful that we can connect to the Greek culture. We collect Greek cinema video's and this one is by far the greatest comedies that we have ever seen, USA or Greece. We feel honored to see Kostas Hatzichristos in this performance. Since we are not as good as understanding Greek as the Greek themselves, we sometimes have a hard time understanding bits and pieces due to the super fast dialogue. What is great though is that we understand something new to us each and every time we watch this classic. It is incredible script and from what I have heard, improvised at times! An absolute gem that gets brighter and brighter each time it is watched. As Greece modernizes, my heart breaks. These legends are fading into the sunset. Who will replace them? Sadly, no one.

Including Nezer,Doukas,Rizos and Fermas.Nice music and lines dleivering from Hatzihristos who has excellent chemistry with his boss Doukas.A must see for lovers of old greek cinema and not only.

This is quite simply the best comedy in the history of Greek cinema. Characters and plot are as simple as it gets. Yet Kostas Chatzichristos delivers, with the best comedic performance of Greek cinema history , with constant punchlines (every single moment) which are relatable and memorable until this very day. To summ up : HANDS DOWN THE BEST COMEDY GREEK CINEMA HAS EVER PRODUCED!!!

An excellent comedy for Greek speakers. Chatzichristos was known among the Greek actors for his incredible ability to improvise; sometimes to such an extent that it was hard for his colleagues to follow up, especially on stage. "Tis Kakomoiras" gave him the opportunity to unfold his talent, since it is essentially a character comedy based on the leading role of Zikos, which he assumed. Zikos is a countryman who moves to the capital and there, among others, he falls in love with a young girl who lives in the same neighborhood. There are numerous funny scenes in the movie, but what really makes it such a successful comedy is the "ability" of Zikos to twist the Greek language. He comes up with numerous new words and phrases which are absolutely hilarious. The rest of the cast performs exquisitely as well (especially Marika Nezer and Kostas Doukas). All in all a highly recommendable movie, but as mentioned above, mostly for those who can understand Greek.
