This film got me the same way that The Gods Must Be Crazy did, in that I watched a few minutes of it one day on the Cable channel, but turned off the television for something meaningful. Was I WRONG! As with The Gods Must Be Crazy, one day I watched it all the way through, and found it to be truly enjoyable.

About this film, O'Horten, I have read other reviews and most of them got what I did out of it, oh, some things were different, but, something were also the same.

As a fine watch is engineered and made to exacting standards, so was this film. Mr. Owe, as well as the others, did as he was hired to do, and he did it so very well.

This film has a message in it that a lot of people today need to know about, it will do them some good.

I remember thinking as Odd went into the restaurant and sat down, " there ARE still places out of the way like that where people function daily and contribute to the actions that must take place for things to go where they are meant to go."

One warning, if you let it, this film will take you into it, and you will go from one scene to another as Odd does. Experience the music, atmosphere, the implied things, and all the other good that radiates from this film.

I will very gladly watch this movie over and over again, anytime that I know it is being shown.

To those who have read this review, I say, rent it if you can, or catch it on Sat or Cable, but do watch it.

My thanks to all involved in the making of the film, Mr. Owe, you did a very fine job Sir.
