在这部奥拉维·维尔塔片中,Olavi Virta, Finnish tango's greatest voice, as an old, lost and lonely man. Time as the great leveller in all its morose unforgivingness. Screened before Paavo Nurmi - The Man and His Times.
Portrait of a national icon as an old, lost and lonely man. When Olavi Virta was screened for the first time, people all over Finland went ballistic - they couldn't take that sad sight of their tango's greatest voice, the incarnation of postwar wealth and glory in ruins. A masterpiece.
