THE HUNDRED-YEAR-OLD MAN WHO CLIMBED OUT THE WINDOW AND DISAPPEARED (Adventure/ Comedy, 2013, Sweden, R, 114 minutes)—In English
Directed and screenplay by Felix Herngren
Based on the novel by Jonas Jonasson
Starring: Robert Gustafsson, Iwar Wiklander, and David Wiberg

Based on the internationally best-selling novel by Jonas Jonasson, this film portrays the most unlikely story of a 100-year-old man who decides that it’s not too late to start over. Reminiscent of Woody Allen’s 1983 “mockumentary” Zelig and Robert Zemeckis’s 1994 comedy Forrest Gump, Herngren’s depicts the comic misadventures of Allan Karlsson (Robert Gustafsson), a resident of a retirement home who escapes just in time to miss his own centenary birthday party. Accidentally stealing a suitcase full of money, Karlsson is pursued by an incompetent motorcycle gang as he improbably teams up with an ageing rogue, an incomplete man and a feisty women. On the run, Karlsson flashes back to his past lives in which he interacts with great moments in 20th Century history, including encounters with Franco, Stalin, Truman, Oppenheimer and Reagan. Although not explicitly graphic, the film shows a series of bleakly comic deaths, but—as one critic put it—“narrated from the standpoint of aged, shoulder-shrugging, sterilised resignation.”

Louise Keller in Urban Cinefile says of this film: “This uplifting, crowd pleasing entertainment is a road movie, a character study, a wild adventure and black comedy all rolled into one. It's a helluva ride.”

Tickets are available in advance at MovieMart (444 St. Paul) and at the Paramount Theatre Monday through Wednesday evenings the week of the screening, or at the door on the Thursday evening screening. A $2 annual membership in the Kamloops Film Society is required. Please bring your 2014 blue membership card to each screening.
