  • One of the opening scene's of 1988's Arial, shows his father giving him the keys to his car, telling him that life basically isn't worth living and then going to the bathroom to shoot himself. This is typical Kaurismäki at his best, and is actually a lot funnier than it sounds. Includes English subtitles. Please subscribe to see more Aki Kaurismäki clips coming soon and even request some. However, I won't upload full movies, as the idea of these clips is to promote the brilliant works of Aki Kaurismäki.

    This must be the best suicide scene I have ever seen in a film. It's dark, sarcastic and the music in the background and the 60's cafeteria make this perfectly symbolize the death or traditional countryside life in Finland and downsides of urbanization. And the monologue of the old man is great!

    One of my favourite films of all time! Discovered it when I was deep into my obsession with all things Finnish when I was about 16-17 and watched it many times since. The deader-than-deadpan performances, the locations, the music, the sparse but comic dialogue - all brought together by the master of black comedy!
    I've seen a good few of Aki Kaurismäki's films (none of Mika's yet, though!) and this is still my favourite. His adaptation of Crime and Punishment (Rikos ja rangaistus) is also a delight. Well, maybe not a delight exactly, but it sucks you in just like Ariel does.

      No, many toilets have a pathway, especially in older buildings. You don't face the stall straight away.
