Norwegian feelgood
Romantic & socially realistic feel-good film, not about relationship complications (the couple get engaged during the first ten minutes), but with housing complications. Henki Kolstad and Inger Marie Andersen are endearing in the lead roles, and make us really believe that they are in love. The film's story is both timeless and closely linked to post-war Norway. Most remarkable, seen from 2023, is the moralism they encounter from several quarters, particularly from housekeepers and other authority persons. The film contains mild criticism of this, but other than that it is not particularly critical of the society or the housing policies. It is most of all enjoyable. As I said; feel good.
