Percy, Buffalo Bill och jag
Percy, Buffalo Bill and I
Anders Gustafsson 2005 Sweden
A young boy goes on a summer vacation with his parents and brother and best friend to his grandparents' fishing village, and falls in love…
Typically Swedish, in that it has the audacity to make its young protagonist a bit of a brat, and it assumes in this sense a naivety of youth. But it's far from anything new: a repetitive narrative makes an unfavourable comparison with Hallström's My Life as a Dog, to which it is most similar. It's a sugary film lacking in any imagination whatsoever.
