Carl Schenstrom

Carl Schenstrøm (born November 13, 1881 in Copenhagen , † April 10, 1942 there ) was a Danish film actor . He became internationally known in the role of Pat in the comedian duo Pat & Patachon .

Life

Carl Schenstrøm came from a family of craftsmen and learned the trade of bookbinder. His family emigrated to the United States around 1890 , but returned three years later. As an apprentice, Carl Schenstrøm played in a lay group. After completing his apprenticeship, he auditioned at a Copenhagen theater and promptly got a job, which, however, was poorly paid.

He heard from colleagues that actors were being sought for smaller supporting roles in the film industry, and so he made his debut as a film actor in the - albeit only moderately successful - film Peder Tordenskjold in 1910 . For Schenstrøm this role was nevertheless a success: In the same year he received a contract with Nordisk . However, his engagements were initially limited to supporting roles, for which he sacrificed the time outside the theater season. He appeared in August Bloms Atlantis (1913) and alongside Asta Nielsen in Holger-Madsen's Mod lyset (1919).

In 1913 the director Lau Lauritzen senior discovered Schenstrom's talent as a comedian and used him in some of his comedies. After a few years, both switched to the production company Palladium . In 1921 the comedian duo Pat and Patachon (in the Danish original: Fyrtaarnet and Bivognen ) was launched with the silent film Film, flirt og forlovelse . Lauritzen directed, Carl Schenstrøm played the Pat and for the role of Patachon was Harald Madsen engaged. The tramp couple's stories became a huge international hit in the 1920s and 1930s. Schenstrøm played this role almost exclusively from then on. His last film was I de gode, gamle dage in 1940 .
