I see from today's TV listing that tonight Torontonians will be treated to
a three-star Finnish comedy called *Hamlet Goes Business*(1988), starring
Pirkka-Pekka Petelius and Esko Salminen. *Broadcast Week* sets it up:
"Playboy Hamlet acts weird after seeing the ghost of his father, a paper
baron in today's Finland." On your marks! Set VCRs!
