Harry og kammertjeneren
(Harry and the Butler)

Denmark (1961): Comedy/Family

This comedy by Danish director Bent Christensen revolves around Harry (Osvald Helmuth), an eccentric old man whose pot of gold comes in one day when he gets an inheritance. Rather than invest his windfall he decides what he needs for true happiness is his own butler. After Harry hires someone willing to take on the job, circumstances conspire to bring about unexpected changes -- even for Harry's two best friends, a pair of petty thieves. Meanwhile, the butler has his own opinion of his job and his new boss. (Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide)
