About Weh' dem, der erbt
"Take care of Merton Hall!" is the last wish of industrial magnate George Dunrich to cleaning lady Alice Thursday. A few days later, the executor of his will, Bridger, informs the respectable woman, who grew up on the same street as Dunrich, that the deceased has left her £10 million of his fortune...
Directed by Georg Tressler, Weh' dem, der erbt leans on a strong ensemble — Inge Meysel, Ann Smyrner, Walter Buschhoff — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1969.
