Always Trouble with the Lümmeln (original title: Top Crack ) is an Italian comedy film shot in 1966 . Mario Russo staged the work, which was not particularly well discussed, by an international ensemble of actors. There are a number of alternative titles to the film shown for the first time on November 23, 1985 on a private broadcaster in German-speaking countries (but in shortened form), such as Entführung ins Chaos - Top Crack , Top Crack or Top Crack - Entführung must be learned .

action

Two likable crooks, the Englishman Charles and the German Karl, come to Rome because they intend to kidnap a child of the family of inventors, the Feril, who made billions with powdered eggs in a pan. Right from the start, they clash with a group of children led by the motorcyclist “Eins”. When the coup finally succeeds - always watched by the children - the kidnapped instead of the child feels not at all afraid old Mr. Feril sympathy for his kidnappers and leads them to demand a larger sum than they actually wanted - only to find out that his family doesn't even think about numbers.

Soon, however, the Ferils need the senior's signature for a contract with the developer of artificial bacon and want to hand over the ransom in jewels, as requested. After many mistakes and mishaps, still and again and again under the company of numerous young drivers, Charles and Karl, who had difficulties mainly with transporting the old man, reach their destination, the handover, and let the old Feril go free. You are happy and content; towards the end, however, they (and Feril, with whom they made common cause) are surprised when their prey, attached to balloons, goes into the air, is shot at and falls into the sea.

criticism

An Italian critic wrote of the “adventurous comedy”: “What the advertising calls a comical and daring film is a modest film for fourteen-year-olds in which Terry-Thomas and Moschin fight bravely. Nothing would have to be written about him if it weren't for 80-year-old Victor Francen, who, as always, plays nicely and with control, even if his goatee is now iron gray. ”, Piero Perona said in June 1967.

Remarks

The film music was released on LP (CAM AMG.6) with 14 tracks.

Since poster photos exist (also for the title We steal a millionaire ), a movie theater was probably planned.

synchronization

Moschin is spoken by Wolfgang Gruner , Terry-Thomas by Friedrich Wilhelm Bauschulte .
