The Friend From Springfield
Even the greatest screenwriters suffer from writer’s block, and the only cure is an impromptu trip to Paris. And so, comedy writer Jonas Lenner flees the suffocating monotony of home. Jonas tells his wife that he is going to visit head teacher Mikkelsen, an old – and fictitious – friend in Springfield. But of course she learns the truth yet says nothing. All hell breaks loose shortly after Jonas’ return, when a certain head teacher Mikkelsen suddenly manifests in the flesh on his doorstep
