Audience Member En DVD. Historia de relaciones; familiares, amistosas, padres e hijos... todo muy bien llevado por un guion sensible y bien estructurado que le da a esta historia sencilla una secillez candorosa. Va en la linea de las pelis como "Teorema" de Passolini o "Pingpong" de Matthias Luthardt donde un elemento ajeno entra en la rutina de los individuos, aletargados, conformes, resignados, para romperla y plantear multiples cuestionamientos por su sola presencia, dar nuevas oportunidades y una razon para seguir... existiendo. Debo hacer la salvedad que el "Hector" del que hablo no corresponde a la imagen ni al agno que aparecen aunque el casting es el correcto. El Hector de Quejereta es del 2004. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastiche Urbanus Film, zalige Humor! super om is goe vlaams te horen :-) Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Urbanus is the actor to play aswell a very dramatic scene as a humoristique one gogo Urbanus :-) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I can watch this movie again and again, it never gets boring. A real classic Belgian comedy and a worthy director debut for Stijn Coninx. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member A classic in Belgium, a truly amazing & touching movie! And mostly soo funny! The story is about an orphan, Hector (the greatest Flemish comedian, Urbanus), who was left alone for more than 30 years. Now, some of his relatives see the opportunity to put him at work in a bakery. But he will prove to be a very clumsy helping hand, who will set their whole life upside down, including falling in love with Ella, his aunt (the hot Sylvia Millecam:p, R.I.P) ! With some really memorable & sweet scenes! Splendid! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
