There was a movie filmed in 1970 called A Swedish Love Story that became a sort of underground cult hit because of its straight-forward storytelling and honest imagery.
It was subsequently copied in a Vice Fashion editorial and written about in essays the world over. The film follows two smokin’ (both literally and figuratively) Swedish teens named Annika and Pär. Rich city girl and poor country boy meet and are both too shy to communicate their feelings for each other. The styling. Oh! The styling. Only naturally with it being 1970 in Sweden, the outfits are miraculous and so raw. Everyone wears heavy knits and smooth leather jackets and cruises around on their mopeds with the wind in their hair. They ride life straight to perfect laughter. Brb, moving to Sweden. In one part of the movie Annika’s family goes to Pär’s family’s house for dinner and everyone gets a cool party hat and lobster bib
