Eila, Rampe and Baby Girl (2014)
Baby Girl, 30, a poet with a bachelor's degree in arts, is anguished because of her relationship with Pirkka, a relatively smart, young man. Baby Girl's parents, Eila and Rampe, do their best to become friends with Pirkka and his elegant mother. Through coincidence and error Eila occupies her summerhouse neighbors' empty luxury villa. When Pirkka's mother drops by, Eila lies that she and Rampe own the fancy house. The showing off and lying escalate when Eila's mother and sister show up. The real owners of the house, an upper-class couple, Thomas and Monica, are driven away to Eila and Rampe's modest cottage.

Just perfect...
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
A true theater comedy. There's nothing pretentious and I'm not pretentious. All actors behave professionally and give characters real consistence. The movie drives you smoothly to the end in a continuous entertainment with easy to find everyday human profiles. The natural scenery makes yet lighter and wild the plot. A plot that has nothing new on the subject but, I just found healthy to remember us from time to time the many useless and stressful lies human urbanites live and put on. It doesn't matter the latitude, we lie. This light comedy, supposedly inexpensive, brings out a Nordic often forgotten society which reflects exactly all other more on view similar. Director Mäkelä quite finely uses her knowledge of common women patterns, well accented for the opera, making them as funny as a cartoon; she's too compassionate with men though, well, the works turns around peculiar Eiia anyway. Our societies are full of these behavioral social illness - often hidden under "good manners" labels - Why pretend they were argument of the 50-60s when they are at our side (or parts of us) in everyday life? Ah, if critics used some humbleness! Words can be tiring. I much enjoyed this movie
