Shadows in Paradise (Aki Kaurismäki, 1986)
[media=https://youtu.be/DjT__3_LfWc]
This was my first Kaurismaki film, and in many ways it remains my favorite, it's a textbook example of how to do deadpan humor, and the few moments where a blues song (BB King) bursts on, I just love it even more!! If the usual romcom is too touchy feely for you, this might be just the thing for you!!
