About The Film Heroes
By coincidence, Pat and Patachon are cast for the lead roles in a major film production. It quickly turns out that the odd couple doesn't fit in to just any plot, and especially Patachon's helpless attempts to play prince charming are testing the director's patience. (stumfilm.dk)
Directed by Lau Lauritzen Sr., The Film Heroes leans on a strong ensemble — Carl Schenstrøm, Harald Madsen, Holger Reenberg — 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 1928.
