Edge of the Deck

About This Movie

So, 'Edge of the Deck'—or as it was originally titled, 'Kantje Boord'—is quite the quirky little comedy from 2011. The film dives into the misadventures of Harrie Vermeulen, played by Jon van Eerd, who's an accountant trying to do the right thing. You know, the classic good guy caught in a mess. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but that kind of adds to its charm, making you feel the absurdity of his situation. The yacht setting creates a laid-back atmosphere but juxtaposes the serious themes of ethics in the workplace. It’s got a certain low-budget charm that you don’t see much anymore, and Vermeulen’s performance really carries the film with a mix of slapstick and genuine emotion. It’s definitely a unique take on corporate comedy.
