action
The plot of the first film Don't Itch Buddy is of secondary importance.

Creation and marketing
The rights to the novel by Hans Henning Claer had initially been acquired by producer Luggi Waldleitner . As the chairman of the Clean Screen Campaign , he did not want to film the novel and sold the rights to Gunter Otto, although in return he acquired the foreign rights. Producer Otto wrote - under the pseudonym FG Marcus - not only the first draft of the script, but also acted as cameraman.
Some filming was supposed to take place in the coal mines of Bochum , but negotiations with the responsible authorities revealed that Claer's novel was often perceived as dirtying the nest . So they looked for a disused tunnel in Penzberg in Upper Bavaria . Other locations were Pasing , Memmingen , Kufstein , Freilassing and Ulm . Outdoor shots were shot in Kamen and Bergkamen .
Director Franz Marischka had initially announced the upcoming film version to journalists as a socially critical documentary and then had to reassure the disappointed cinema owners with a clear trailer . The world premiere took place on July 28, 1972.
Award
Released in 1972, the film was ranked fifth among German films in terms of commercial success and was awarded the Golden Screen Prize in 1973 for its commercial success . He had about four million viewers in the Federal Republic.
Reviews
- Heyne Filmlexikon (1996): “Potent Ruhrpott stenze and constantly heated women play the leading roles in this mining drama based on a novel by Hans Henning Claer. Not even the dialect of the actors can exist in the audience's ears. "
- Film-Dienst 1976: "Allegedly unadulterated description of typical everyday conditions in the Ruhr area: largely vulgar pornography, underlaid with rude jargon, which is interpreted as a buddy dialect."
- Lexicon of international films : “First part of a sex comedy series that was 'inspired' by the semi-pornographic novel of the same name by the former amateur boxer and policeman Hans Henning Claer. The films allegedly set in the Ruhr area want their crude jargon to be understood as a 'buddy dialect'. At the center (...) is a colliery worker who, in spite of a damaged intervertebral disc, 'malokes' for the sake of his attractive wife while she pursues her various sex adventures. "
- Martin Hentschel in 'Let itch! - Die Kumpelfilme der 1970er '(2014): “Franz Marischka staged Claer's novel as a varied - rarely straightforward - sequence of dramatic and funny moments, garnished with a good portion of sex. The characters are constantly confronted with professional frustration and private sadness and occasionally try to escape this prescribed life with alcohol and love. The film revolves around the experiences and stories of its protagonists and establishes that these are essentially not that different. Shot in real workers 'apartments, the film is an authentic contemporary document about the condition of the miners' families in the 1970s. It is not so much the pessimism that determines the basic tone of the film, rather LASS JUCKEN KUMPEL is a real milieu film in which something like hope and joie de vivre often flashes. "
