About This Movie

So, 'Min syster och jag' – a quirky little TV movie from 1980 that weaves in comedy with some class commentary, if you think about it. The story revolves around Roger, a rather endearing librarian, who’s hopelessly in love with princess Saint Labiche. Their class differences weigh heavily on him, which is relatable and adds depth. The princess, crafty and clever, invents a twin sister to bridge that gap, and that’s where the fun really kicks in. The performances have a light-hearted charm, and there’s this playful pacing that keeps it engaging without overstaying its welcome.

It’s a unique mix of humor, romance, and a touch of social commentary that stands out in its simplicity.
