About Regnen holdt op
It's a warm summer evening in North Zealand. Black clouds are rising over the horizon and threatening thunder. Margit is cycling from the small guesthouse where she has settled down for her summer vacation to a party at a friend's house, which lives a few kilometers away. Margit is wearing a black dress and looks quite stunning, coming there on a bicycle - but it's necessary, because the landlady has decreed that all her guests must wear black - "it looks so good on her white terrace".
Directed by Svend Methling, Regnen holdt op leans on a strong ensemble — Berthe Qvistgaard, Mogens Wieth, Clara Pontoppidan — 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 1942.
