Linnaisten Vihreä Kamari
''Linnaisten vihreä kamari'' (''The Green Chamber of Linnais'') is a 1945 Finnish film directed by Valentin Vaala. Mixing elements of horror and romance, it is based on an 1859 novel ''The Green Chamber of the Linnainen Mansion'' (''Linnaisten kartanon viheriä kamari'') by Zachris Topelius. The film represents the style of pure escapism with its mansion settings filled with romances, wrong identities and centuries-old secrets. It was the most watched Finnish premiere film of 1945 and went on to win three Jussi Awards; Rauli Tuomi for best actor in a leading role, Eino Heino for best cinematography and Roy for best production design. Reception ''Linnaisten vihreä kamari'' received mixed reviews. It was noted for achieving to create a genuine historical-romantic atmosphere. Also the acting, cinematography and production design were praised. On the other hand, some critics mentioned that the film failed to modernize the themes of the original novel.

People From Tampere
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
