The memoirs of one of Norway's most popular authors, Odd Borresen, inspired this comedy-drama set in Olso during the late 1930s. Oddemann (Fredrik Stenberg Ditlev-Simonsen) is a young boy with a highly active imagination who is unusually conscious of the fact that he gets older every day, and he's not too happy with the prospect of someday becoming an adult. Oddemann and his pals observe the adults in the community from a distance as he tries to figure out what they do, and he keeps an eye peeled for Jesus, who is supposed to always be watching him. Oddemann and his older bother discover two adults whom they unreservedly admire, Nansen and Johansen, a pair of explorers traveling through the Arctic. The two brothers and a friend decide to stage an exploratory mission of their own, with disastrous results. De Jeg Traff Jesus ... Med Sprettert! was Norway's official entry for the 2000 Academy Awards Foreign Language Feature competition; its release title in English-speaking countries was Little Odd Man. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Noe Helt Annet: 1986

This slapstick comedy has some zingers that hit the mark but others fall flat and deflated. The humor is constructed of puns and sight gags that find their inspiration in two of Sweden's seasoned comics, old Dracula movies, and the spirit of Monty Python. Buff (Trond Kirkvaag) is plagued by an impressive set of incisors, a love of garlic, and strange yearnings on full-moon nights. As it turns out, his odd traits and his genealogical tree both stem from the infamous Count Dracula, an ancestor, in fact. Suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous discrimination on the part of his peers, Buff has no intention of following in the Count's footsteps -- he would rather romance the woman of his dreams in the normal human manner (whatever that is). ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
