The Racer

Directed by Lau Lauritzen Sr.

With Lauritz Olsen, Carl Schenstrøm, Aage Bendixen, Ellen Timm and Kate Fabian

A fast-paced little farce about the racing enthusiast Hurtigkarl and his sports-mad dream – to see his favourite runner hitched with his daughter Musse. Since Musse would rather be with hairdresser Svipp, Hurtigkarl has to think on his feet: A race between the two rivals must decide the matter – the winner gets to be with Musse until the end of days. The plan seems impeccable, but there’s something Hurtigkarl hasn’t thought of. In the race, your mind must be as quick as your legs! (stumfilm.dk)
