Cornelis
I just got home from a visit to the cinema. Me and Otto decided to watch the new movie that tells the life story of the troubadour Cornelis Vreeswijk, born in the Netherlands and emigrated to Sweden when he was about 12 years old. He is considered one of Sweden's most influential and successful troubadours, which is a bit ironic since he actually never became a swedish citizen.
Cornelis is portrayed by Hans-Erik Dyvik Husby, also known as Hank von Helvete, singer of the band Turbonegro. In my opinion he was perfect for the role - especially by his looks.
What I thought of the movie? Well, I am a fan of Cornelis' music and in my opinion this was a very interesting movie. It seems like a just portrait of the man - an excellent songwriter with an unhealthy relationship with alcohol and the fear of being abandoned. I recommend it to all of you, especially if you're a Cornelis fan. :)

Whaaa?
Is Hank von Helvete playing Cornelis? I'd never recognize him in a million years!
