Gråtrunka

Hopefully the Swedes never make a movie with this title.

It would be a real tear jerker.

This meant nothing to me, so I googled Gråtrunka.

I wish I hadn't bothered, it means to cry while bashing the bishop (and if you don't know what that means, then you're better off knowing nothing about Gråtrunka)

Thanks for the warning, Canary.

You suffered so I don't have to.

Or polishing the dolphin.

Having discovered the meaning, I must acknowledge the joke is a mildly amusing play on words.

What I also find amusing is firstly that the Swedes need a word to define such an activity and secondly that an Aussie knows it LOL.
