Best Quotes from Eurovision the Movie

Whenever I need a pick me up, I watch Eurovision the movie. At first, some of the humor didn’t make sense, but after a while I started to get that the straightforward innocence of the main characters is in direct contrast with common sense or expectation, resulting in a lot of dumb luck. It’s a special brand of humor I haven’t seen in other movies. And it’s fun to learn a little more about Icelandic culture and politics while getting to know their relationship to the Eurovision competition.
