Storyline

Leif is in his fifties. He is a film enthusiast with a partiality for old Danish film classics. Now he works as a film projectionist and runs the cinema in a small provincial town, where Solvej, who is a few years younger has lived all her life. A young woman in job training and a love-struck local politician bring chaos and jealousy into Leif and Solvej's relationship. After many complications and a show where everything goes wrong, Leif takes over the plot of the film on stage and finally, as the film's hero, he makes his declaration of love to Solvej.

User Reviews

I think the director should make some more movies..

Lars himself showed this movie to me (he is now a teacher at the technical school in Copenhagen), and I thought it was a nice little romantic movie with elements of comedy in it..

Claus Bue and Solbjerg Højfeldt play the two convincing leads, and Peter Belli (of musical "fame" in Denmark) is a terrific villain too...

The opening shot is made in one long take, and I liked that..check it out for yourself boys n girls, it isn't that bad!

If you liked the movie "Mød mig på Cassiopeia", then this will make you happy.
