action

The Dane Boj Holden messes his way through life more badly than right as a comedian. When he is unemployed again, the millionaire Mr. Kronsdorf proves to be the last lifeline. He is definitely looking for an English teacher for his two daughters Mary and Daisy, who should ideally also have knowledge as a flying ace and golfer. But that's a huge problem, and so Boj quickly takes lessons. As an aerobatic pilot, however, Holden, like elsewhere in the Kronsdorf family, causes plenty of confusion and confusion, but can also bring four hearts together thanks to his sunny disposition and a talent for skilfully pulling strings. His best buddy, Benno Biller, is married to Daisy, and Mary Kronsdorf finds her boy of love in the eager applicant Manfred. Boj is not alone either, because his old friend Sabine is also his new one.

Production notes

Heinz Willeg was in charge of production, and Willi A. Herrmann designed the film structures .

The comedian, singer and entertainer Boyd Bachmann (1908–1981), born as Børge Gustav Bachmann, was at times a very popular comedian in Denmark and abroad, both on stage and in film. In this strip he sings the song "Little Man" according to his own lyrics. Sometimes under - sometimes over is one of two German cinema films that he made.

Reviews

Paimann's film lists found that the "not very logical" film "only gives rise to gags from a lively, if a little too tense comedian".

The Lexicon of International Films called this film a “tangible comedy”.
