Ah, they are iconic in Sweden. Made cabaret shows, movies, and wrote books, with an incredible sense for witty jokes, political satire, and also (at times) an incredible depth. Think they were active from the late 50's and into the 80's when Tage died. Usually, our domestic products rarely keep up with the international standard, as our pop music from the 80's will hint at, but Bergman, Hasse & Tage and Lars Molin did know how to make a film. A Hasse & Tage flick probably wouldn't make it through the translation, though.
Otherwise, the only thing we generally do better than most is heavy metal...
And Dave; please do interrupt! Shared fun is greater fun. What's YOUR take on heavy metal, for instance??
