What Harry and the Butler Is About
Harry, an old and poor junkyard hand, comes into an unexpected inheritance from a relative he never knew and decides to spend it on hiring a butler. The man who turns up has served the upper class and is courteous and grave; at first neither knows what to expect of the other, and then they arrange things to suit themselves. Once Harry starts helping the neighbourhood, his neighbours come round to the odd partnership too. In Bent Christensen’s hundred and one minute Danish film, Osvald Helmuth plays Harry and Ebbe Rode the butler. It was nominated for the Academy Award for best foreign language film, named best film at the Danish Bodil awards, and was entered at the Cannes Film Festival in 1962.
