GREEK FILMS

Greek films might satisfy your longing for Greece when it´s months, not weeks, until your next vacation here.

Foreign or partly Greek movie makers love re-creating that typical Greek atmosphere, you know..bougainvillea, roasted goat and turquoise waters... And a handsome Greek man or woman as the star of the fairytale.

Not to forget the music and dancing! From Mamma Mia to Never on Sunday - the film music makes you get up and shake your body!

(I don´t really know if this picture of Melina Mercouri is from a movie, but I juts love this shot of the goddess of Greek movies and had to share it with you!).

OK, here´s a list of films that should comfort you on a I-miss-Greece-so-much-I-could-die-night:

  • Mamma Mia. Makes even me miss Greece.

  • My Big Fat Greek Wedding. The Greeks and the Greek family pictured exactly like they are.

  • Zorba the Greek. How to live life.

  • Shirley Valentine. Woman bringing out her inner goddess.

  • Never on Sunday.Oh, Melina! She was just sooooo beautiful.

  • The Sirens of the Aegean. Make love, not war. Hysterically funny Greek film about how Greeks manage to enjoy life even in the army...

  • My Life in Ruins. A sort of sequel to My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

  • Captain Corelli´s Mandolin. Love that never dies. Or so I think.

  • Le Grand Bleu.

  • Tzatziki och Farsan. Cute Swedish film about boy who was conceived on a holiday on Greece and who returns with his mum to find his father.
