Yes! There are apparently 2 movies based on this book. A man called ove is I think the swedish version and a man called Otto is the americanised version. i haven’t seen either movies yet… The book is okay… I’m not LOVING it… but it’s not bad and it’s not really depressing. So don’t let that stop you from giving it a go. It’s one of those books where the themes are serious… but it’s not written in a depressing way. If that makes sense?
