Captain Passive-Aggressive and his Tractor of Vengeance

...or, as it is more commonly known, Kitchen Stories



Here is a slightly surreal Swedish film about Norwegian time and motion experts who are studying the kitchen habits of single Swedish men. Recipe for hilarity, eh? But wait, it gets better! We have a caravan of campers, imported Norwegian delicacies, pepper, a horse, a lifeguard chair, spyholes, and let's not forget Captain Passive-Aggressive and his tractor of VENGEANCE!

Not a movie I thought I would enjoy, but Liz and I went to see it last year and we are still talking about it and dissolving into fits of giggles whenever cetrain scenes are mentioned. Maybe you have to be in the right mood.

Anyways, go see it. Or rent it. Or buy it. I heartily endorse it, and so does Liz. Plus, the director's name is Bent Hamer - hee!
