A Man Called Otto 2022 seems like an entertaining, heartfelt, and hopeful story that you would want to watch with the whole family.
A Man Called Otto 2022
Otto is a grump who’s given up on life following the loss of his wife and wants to end it all. When a young family moves in nearby, he meets his match in quick-witted Marisol, leading to a friendship that will turn his world around.
A remake of the fantastic original film adaptation of the novel “A Man Called Ove” by Fredrik Backman Ove is a curmudgeon-the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him ‘the bitter neighbour from hell.
At first sight Ove
Is almost certainly the grumpiest man you will ever meet, a curmudgeon with staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People think him bitter, and he thinks himself surrounded by idiots.
Ove’s well-ordered,
Solitary world gets a shake-up one November morning with the appearance of new neighbours, a chatty young couple and their two boisterous daughters, who announce their arrival by accidentally flattening Ove’s mailbox with their U-Haul. What follows is a heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unlikely friendships, and a community’s unexpected reassessment of the one person they thought they had figured out.
A Man Called Otto is scheduled for a limited theatrical release in the United States on December 30, 2022 in New York and Los Angeles, before a larger limited release on January 6, 2023 and then a wide release on January 13, 2023, by Sony Pictures Releasing.
