“It may seem surprising, but there are other directors in the land of Aki Kaurismaki. And they are making enjoyable films as well. u0026quot;The happiest day … u0026quot; is a small but pleasant production situated in the u0026#39;60s.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor the boxing genre the film is remarkable relaxed. This time not a touchy flammable Jake La Motta as the main character (u0026quot;Raging bullu0026quot;, 1980, Martin Scorsese) but the somewhat shy Olli Maki. Olli is very realistic about his chances of becoming world champion in his weight class, but he has luckily other interests too.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn Holland the film showed only for a very short period of time and only in a couple of art house theaters, but it is nonetheless well worth seeing.”
