Uli, der Pächter

Uli, der Pächter

Franz Schnyder 1955 1h 55m

Uli, the tenant on the 'Glunggenhof', leads a happy life with his wife and child. Weather luck and honest work bring him rich harvests, and so he becomes overconfident and, advised by false friends, gets entangled in unclean business.

Uli der Knecht

Uli der Knecht

Franz Schnyder 1954 1h 55m

The film traces Uli's progress from his humble peasant surroundings to the homes of the wealthy and prominent. The characterizations are convincing, and the comic interludes surprisingly subtle and believable for a Swiss film. The no-star cast doomed Uli Der Knecht from the start so far as American distribution was concerned.

Heidi

Trotzdem fährt das Bergmädchen in die Stadt, um ihrer kranken Freundin Klara zu helfen. Weit weg von zu Hause überfüllt sie bald das Heimweh. Der unvergeßliche Film nach dem berühmten Roman von Johanna Spyri.
