Happy Family (Beetje Verliedfd'n)
Read about this film in Cyn Collins’s Daily Planet review, “21 films in 11 days.”
Director: MARTIN KOOLHOVEN
Foxy grandpa Thijs may be headed for assisted-living if his bossy daughters have their way, but his dormant libido gets a kick-start when truant grandson Omar posts a matching ad on his behalf.
Enter Jackie, voluptuous Flemish veteran of three marriages and a dynamo on the dance fl oor as well as elsewhere. It turns out the last thing the family had in mind for old dad was happiness. A huge hit in Holland, this bouncy comedy takes aim at the generation gap, with a few swipes at multi-cultural disconnect for good measure. By the director of 2007 festival hit Schnitzel Paradise.

SUPER Happy Family
This was a great film – funny, real, wise, and romantic (non-insipid variety).
BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK.
I want to take other people to see it.
BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK. BRING IT BACK.
