| Operation Grandma | comment |
Operation Grandma (Mivtza Savta) is an Israeli cult comedy written and directed by Dror Shaul released in 1999. The Sagiv brothers - Alon (Rami Heuberger), a hardass Army officer; Benny (Ami Smolartchik), a Cloud Cuckoolander electrician; and Idan (Tzach Shpitzen), a wimpy youth social worker - are faced with the unpleasant reality, after their grandmother dies, of bringing her back to their kibbutz for burial. On a tight schedule, because Alon is due for a counterterrorism operation, they make a foolproof plan to get her back with military precision. Hilarity Ensues. | |

| Operation Grandma / int_1777688d | comment |
Genre Savvy: Nicki the Swiss tourist on the kibbutz responds to Alon's chat-up lines by saying she bets he tells all the girls the same thing. (Note that this doesn't deter her from hooking up with him.) | |

It's Personal: Alon's commanding officer has a grudge against him because they grew up on the kibbutz together and he was rejected for kibbutz membership, while Alon still enjoys the privilege of keeping a flat on the kibbutz. | |

"Blackmail" Is Such an Ugly Word: How Alon gets his commanding officer to change his mind about approving the counterterrorism operation in Gaza. Mention is made of driving a tractor backward, a marijuana growing operation in the kibbutz fields, and laziness when picking oranges. | |

| Operation Grandma / int_d8573ef9 | comment |
Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: Alon tries to get the kibbutz to take care of Savta's funeral by pointing out that she donated a buttload of money and his parents helped found the kibbutz. This cuts no ice with Devora. How Hagit manages to get Savta's corpse out of the police impound lot. Her mother is friends with the cops. | |

The "Fun" in "Funeral" | |
| Operation Grandma / int_e4f48a7f | comment |
The "Fun" in "Funeral": A spray-painted casket made of hastily-assembled two-by-fours that rapidly disintegrates when being lowered into the ground. A brief impromptu eulogy. A cut-short, off-key version of "Besame Mucho." This is Savta's funeral. | |
