Old Martin (Espen Skjonberg) is haunted by his past, and he has a lot to be haunted by. When he was a young man (Nicolay Lange-Nielsen) his uncle gave him the money to set up business in the wilds of western Norway as a horse trader. His uncle also entrusted a girl, Anna (Camilla Strom Henriksen) to him. Martin was already involved in her life: Anna's father had raped her and gotten her pregnant, and Martin killed the man for this. The two worked hard to make a life for themselves in the wilderness, and they eventually had a social life and a child of their own. For some reason, Martin left his wife while she was giving birth to their child, and he had reason to doubt that she would live through the experience. Now, years later, she has contacted him. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

The major question in this routine drama about a love (or loveless?) triangle is "when is a choice between two lives not a choice at all?" Lene (Lotte Tarp) has been leading a crushingly humdrum existence as a mother and a wife. Her husband Steen (Peter Schroeder) has the standard male shortcomings and after several years of marriage, Lene has no wellspring inside, no zest for living. So when she meets Michael (George Bamford) from New York, she is attracted to him mainly by default. But her relationship with Michael is enough to make her question her marriage -- and maybe that was all she really needed. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

A young vicar (Ulf Pilgaard) is instructed to solve pressing modern problems by his religious superior. His sincere efforts prove fruitless as he loses his followers to a traveling faith healer. He and his former divinity students break into a Copenhagen church at midnight where he gives a drunken sermon from the pulpit. The vicar uses the theatricals that were encouraged by his mentor, but now he is completely agitated and animated in his delivery and outlook on life and faith. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Two brothers looking to avoid becoming pawns of the establishment come up with a better way of making a living -- through theft -- in this satiric comedy. David Tremayne (Oliver Reed) is a successful London architect, and his younger brother Michael (Michael Crawford) is weighing his options after being kicked out of school. The brothers share a bemused disgust with the world around them and a desire to get through life without the burden of labor; toward this end, one day they begin plotting an elaborate scheme to steal the British Crown Jewels. Mind you, they don't intend to sell them, or even keep them very long -- the idea is to return them after a week, simply to prove that it could indeed be done, and make themselves famous in the process. After studying the procedures of Scotland Yard's Bomb Disposal Unit, the inner working of the Tower of London's Jewel Room, and the London ambulance services, the Tremaynes come up with a foolproof plan -- they call in a bomb threat to the Tower, and they are able to enter the Jewel Room posing as men from the bomb squad. They then feign injury and are able to escape in an ambulance. It all seems simple enough, and it actually works, until Michael "forgets" his part of the agreement to take half of the responsibility for the theft. The supporting cast includes Edward Fox, Frank Finlay, and Harry Andrews. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

This erotic murder mystery finds a wealthy old man despised by his family. When he is murdered, the disinherited family members are the prime suspects. The main focus of the film is Lotte Tarp, who appears in various states of undress and makes love in a few scene that have little to do with the plot. The film seems to suffer from bad editing and dubbing, with the nudity being one of the only redeeming qualities of this disjointed exploitation feature. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

Lotte Tarp plays Miss 44 in this raunchy British/Danish sex farce, so it's a sure bet that the title doesn't refer to the calibre of a gun. Not much happens: there are some lovely shots of Copenhagen, and some lovelier shots of bosomy Danish starlets. Ian Carmichael must have needed a new suit or something, else why would he have agreed to this inexpensive programmer, which could do nothing for his career, and didn't. British comedian Tony Hawes is curiously billed as "Narration for Voice of Monty Landis," though Landis (best remembered for his many guest appearances on the TV series The Monkees) doesn't appear to have an active role in the proceedings. Oh, well: man does not live by Citizen Kane alone. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
