Oh! That Cheese

‘Oh! That Cheese!’ offers a foul-smelling jape between two friends. David and his girlfriend are going to a ball, but they forget to invite David’s friend Jonathan. This hurts Jonathan, who vows to prank David by hiding a piece of ancient cheese in his jacket. David has such a stuffy nose that his sense of smell is gone, but what playful retaliation awaits Jonathan when David sniffs out the prank?(stumfilm.dk)

Directed by Lau Lauritzen Sr., Oh! That Cheese leans on a strong ensemble — Lauritz Olsen, Ingeborg Bruhn Bertelsen, Carl Schenstrøm — 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 1916.
