About this product
Product Information
A quaint story about the friendship between two aging men, KITCHEN STORIES is packaged as a comedy with a very strange premise. It is based on research conducted in Sweden in the 1950s when women were observed in the kitchen for a study to determine the best housework techniques. In the film, a fictional plotline concerns a team of Swedish scientists--all men--hired to observe bachelors living alone in Norway. Their methods are absurd. The observers live in funny little trailers outside their subjects' houses. They sit in high, intimidating chairs placed in the corner of their subjects' kitchens where they take notes on a clipboard. Finally, there is a strict rule that the observer and the subject must not speak to each other or make contact of any kind. This last rule is impossible to follow, and in the case of observer Folke (Tomas Norstrom) and subject Isak (Joachim Calmeyer) it is ignored. The two aging men become fast friends, passing wintry afternoons in the rural countryside sipping coffee, smoking pipes, and telling each other fantastic stories. Writer-director Bent Hamer has created a sweet and pleasing comedy with KITCHEN STORIES, using excellent photography, interesting colors, and great performances to make a success of a uncomplicated plot.

- 5***6 (563)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseSorry it took awhile to send feedback - I ordered a used copy of this disc and got the C1300 message "disc is dirty" from the player. Your order came and the same thing happened. Then I ordered a brand new copy from Wal-Mart, opened it and put it in the player and got the same message again. 3 times I got same message! Finally, the disc I got from you was put it in another DVD player and it played fine, which means something is wrong with my other player. Anyway, thanks for A+++ service
