Rolli – Amazing Tales (Finnish: Rölli – hirmuisia kertomuksia) is a 1991 Finnish children's fantasy-comedy film directed by Olli Soinio. It is the first feature-length film based on the children's television character Rölli. Allu Tuppurainen, the musician and actor who created and portrayed Rölli in the television series, not only portrayed Rölli in the film, but also composed the movie's songs as he did in the television series. However, the film doesn't have much similarities with the television series, other than the characters of Rölli and the Big Rölli, as well as Rölli's attire, and the setting place being the Rölli Forest.The film begins with Rölli meeting and befriending the Forest Fairy (Maahiskeiju) after they escape from the clutches of the Big Rölli (Suuri/Iso Rölli). Toy industrialists Seesteinen and Lerkkanen arrive in the Rölli Forest with the intention to establish there an amusement center. However, they're soon forcefully recruited as two of the evil Trashers (Roskanheittäjät), a cult of black-clad litterbugs who're led by the High Priest of the Kingdom of Evil. The Trashers worship the Great Trash (Suuri Roska), a destructive deity that appears as a large disgusting head. Intending to destroy the Rölli Forest, the Trashers spread everywhere junk and trash for the forest residents to marvel and fight over. Only the Forest Fairy understands how the strange and numerous human goods are destroying the forest and tries to convince Rölli to see that. It takes relentlessness and reconciliation before the Trashers can be stopped and the Rölli Forest saved.The film won three Jussi Awards* Finland's premier film industry event that recognizes annually the past year's excellence in Finnish film making by directors, actors, and writers. in 1992. Two of the Awards were Best Costume Design and Best Make-Up. The third Award, Best Supporting Actress, was won by Sari Mällinen for her portrayal of the Forest Fairy. | |

Totem Pole Trench | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_14a44e40 | comment |
Totem Pole Trench: In order to scare Seesteinen and Lerkkanen for their littering and noisemaking, Rölli and the Forest Fairy pretend to be a giant, with the Forest Fairy sitting on Rölli's shoulders while she wears Lerkkanen's hat, uses her long hair as a makeshift beard, and covers them with a quilt. This disguise, combined with Rölli's clumsy threats, only makes the men confused rather than scared, and the quilt soon falls off. | |

Androcles' Lion: Invoked right in the beginning and later double subverted. When Rölli wants to fell the giant old tree, it pleads for him to spare it, promising to repay the debt if it can. When Rölli is trying to evade the Trashers near the ending, he hides behind the tree and asks for its help, but the Trashers capture him and take him away as the tree pities Rölli. Later the tree finally repays its debt by letting itself fall all over the High Priest before the villain can kill Rölli and the Forest Fairy. | |

Knight of Cerebus: The High Priest is the one antagonist who's never played for laughs and who means business in every scene he appears in. Even after the Great Trash is killed, the other Trashers are freed from his influence, their headquarters are destroyed, and the High Priest suffers facial disfigurement, he remains a menacing figure who brandishes his knife to kill Rölli and the Forest Fairy before he's gruesomely crushed by a falling tree. No other Rölli villain before or after has been as terrifying as the High Priest. | |

The Good, the Bad, and the Evil | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_6b8b122b | comment |
The Good, the Bad, and the Evil: The protagonists Rölli and the Forest Fairy come into conflict with the Big Rölli, Seesteinen, Lerkkanen and the Trashers. However, only the Trashers (or more specifically, the High Priest and the Great Trash who brainswashes the other Trashers into his servitude) are unambiguously evil. Seesteinen and his butler Lerkkanen do litter unthinkingly before they're forcibly recruited as the Trashers, and Seesteinen wants to hack the Rölli Forest down and build in its place an amusement center. However, Seesteinen genuinely believes that higher consumption will increase happiness, while Lerkkanen comes off as a credulous servant. The Big Rölli in turn doesn't really do much harm even though the protagonists fear him, and he ends up being essential in bringing the Trashers down. | |

Accidental Hero | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_bd1faab9 | comment |
Accidental Hero: Big Rölli in the climax. He enters the Trashers' lair when Rölli and the Forest Fairy are bound and all the other forest inhabitants are converted into Trashers. He doesn't much understand what's going on, yet semi-accidentally he ends up causing the destruction of the Great Trash and the lair when the broom he has ends up down the throat of the Great Trash. | |

Signature Headgear | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_cbaa9102 | comment |
Signature Headgear: Seesteinen wears a hunt cap while Lerkkanen wears a bowler hat. When they're converted into Trashers, they retain their (already black) headgear instead of having to wear the helmets worn by the Faceless Goons. The High Priest in turn wears a black skullcap. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Seesteinen runs a company that owns most of the country's toy and entertainment industry.

Big "SHUT UP!": When Rölli's listing products he wants from Seesteinen who's pretending to be a wish-granting elf, Seesteinen can hardly write them all down in his laptop. Finally losing his patience, Seesteinen roars Rölli to shut up before he quickly covers that slip. | |

Solemn Ending Theme | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_debc6687 | comment |
Solemn Ending Theme: The film ends with Rölli and the Forest Fairy singing the rather melancholy "Me ollaan hänen lapsiaan" ("We are his/her children") song that resembles at the same time an eulogy for the old tree that let itself fall to rescue them from the High Priest and a praise for the purity of the forest surviving. The song plays over the credits. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: Though the movie's not dubbed from Finnish, the subtitles give some characters differencing names. The film's original title "Hirmuisia kertomuksia" translates as "terrible/terrifying stories". While the name of Maahiskeiju (the Forest Fairy) contains the word fairy (keiju), the word Maahis comes from the word maahinen (gnome or brownie). The subtitles change the name of Reino Seesteinen into Raymond Serene, while Yrjö Lerkkanen becomes George Larky. | |

| Rolli – Amazing Tales / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: The Great Trash spends the majority of the movie being disgusting and taciturn, letting the High Priest to do all the order-giving. However, when he's about to be crushed under boulders, he steals the scene with his hammy Villain Song "Suuren Roskan tuho" ("Destruction of the Great Trash"). | |
