The Olsen Gang Strikes Again is a Danish crime comedy from 1977. It is the ninth film with the Olsen Gang .

action

Egon, Kjeld and Benny want to break into a safe in a factory again. Egon's plan is ruined because the previous security guard has retired and the new security guard is sleeping on the sofa next to the safe. Egon is arrested.

After Egon's release from prison this time, he is confronted with the fact that Benny and Kjeld no longer want to know anything about his criminal methods, as they regard them as hopelessly out of date. Instead, they put their trust in Yvonne's nephew Georg, who studied in the USA and focuses on crimes with the help of the most modern computer technology. Egon reluctantly has to participate in Georg's coup, in which he degenerates from a leader to a simple henchman. Egon sticks a nail into the antenna socket of the computer and puts it out of action so that only computer games can be played with it. Georg leaves the building in a rage and leaves the three to themselves again.

Now Egon can get down to carrying out his actual plan with Kjeld and Benny. At the center of it is the corrupt politician Holm-Hansen, who wants to sell the European Community's butter mountain secretly abroad. The butter is already waiting in refrigerated trucks at a train station. Yvonne, however, demands that they bring Georg back on board, as she is currently getting her driver's license and is dependent on "functioning plans".

The three crooks succeed in luring the buyer of the butter into a trap by first tapping into his tank and then faking a bank robbery. Since the corrupt politician thinks the police are coming for him, he is so distracted that Egon can steal the money and hide it in a station locker. Holm-Hansen then instructs Master Hansen, Egon's archenemy, and the stupid pig, to find and eliminate Egon and his accomplices. Master Hansen actually succeeds in snatching Egon and the money. When Benny is also captured, Kjeld is on his own. He manages to incapacitate the stupid pig and save his friends. Back home, they find out that the money and accompanying documents have been taken to the Copenhagen branch of the World Bank to hide everything until the deal is closed. Egon realizes that he needs Georg's help to overcome the complicated security system. So they reluctantly work together again.

Egon, Kjeld and Benny manage to get locked in the vault, steal the documents and escape from the vault again. When Georg is supposed to open the door, the computer starts spinning again and displaying computer games. He finds the nail just in time and can open the required door. The gang managed to escape just in time. Back home, Egon and Georg are captured by Master Hansen, who had previously unsuccessfully tried to kill him with a bomb, and the stupid pig. Yvonne, Kjeld and Benny race behind with Yvonne's driving instructor and give each other a wild chase through the streets of Copenhagen. In an industrial area they finally succeed in catching the kidnappers when Master Hansen accidentally cuts through the stupid pig's car with a steel gate instead of Yvonne's car. The stupid pig then races with the half of his car against a chimney. Egon flees. Georg leaves the country furious.

Master Hansen and the stupid pig are arrested and blame Egons for all crimes. When Egon learns that Master Hansen is taking the laurels, he rushes to the police and makes a confession for all previous cases that have not been resolved by Detective Inspector Jensen. Jensen, who got his hands on the documents on the Butterberg, is being transferred to the stolen police number plate department because of the unsolved cases that he could not resolve and the fact that he took Holm-Hansen to prison. Egon is arrested and Yvonne destroys all the looted money in a washing machine. At the end, you learn that the price of butter has risen extremely sharply because the 30,000 tons of butter in the wagons were ruined and this summer there was a strong stench over the EC.

German synchronizations

Like all parts of the series, the film was dubbed by DEFA in the GDR . Egon, Benny and Kjeld were spoken , as usual, by Karl Heinz Oppel , Peter Dommisch and Erhard Köster . Helga Hahnemann could be heard for the third and last time as Yvonne's dubbing voice. The well-known actor and entertainer Rolf Herricht , a frequent sketch partner of Helga Hahnemann on GDR television , spoke to Larsen, the driving instructor. He died only about two months after the film premiered in the GDR in June 1981.

For political reasons, some changes have been made to the original in the DEFA dialogues:

  • According to the Danish original, the butter should be sold to Russia because there was a shortage of butter there. In the DEFA dubbed version, Russia became “the underdeveloped countries”.
  • Kjeld's complaint that his nephew "only had alcohol and Marxism on his mind" was changed in the DEFA dubbing to "only alcohol and women on his mind".

In 1990, the synchronization of ZDF appeared in West Germany under the title Butter, Brot und Bonzen .
