We Are the Best

I was looking forward to Lukas Moodysson's new movie, We Are The Best (transl.), because a.) his teen girl movie Show Me Love was very good and b.) this one involves punk rock circa 1982 in Stockholm.  The 80s hair did not disappoint, and the girls were surprisingly energetic as well ad endearing and funny.

Here you can find a clip, for the flavor (and pink spandex): We hate the sport!  The music is great, and touches like fishsticks and the teen Swedish metal band are a real blast from the past that translates past Swedish borders. 

Here is an interview with Coco Moodysson, whose autobiographical graphic novel inspired the film: Cool.  I highly recommend it and may have to see it again.
