Quotes
Carlo Jensen: [Walking past the long queue] Elly, should we get a quick picture of the queue etiquette. Just a second, just a second--a small blink of an eye. Step aside, step aside, excuse me, excuse me--excuse you--may the old lady please get past. You too. Thank you. Good
[dropping plane tickets on check in counter]
Carlo Jensen: . Hello and howdy.
Check-in dame: You will have to stay in the queue like all the others, there is enough room for everybody
[Carlo dropping all luggage on the conveyor belt]
Check-in dame: .
Carlo Jensen: I don't think Daddy caught the name of the lady?
Check-in dame: I will have to ask you to obey by our rules.
Carlo Jensen: [Beating chest] Hello! Hellooooo! I think the batteries to Daddys hearing aids are broken.
Check-in dame: [Frustrating] The same rules apply to you as to all other passengers, sir!
Carlo Jensen: [Looking at the camera] E-Elly, do you see if there's a block of hay stuck in Daddys ear blocking off the kindness of the lady?
Viola van Heimvee: Ohh, how he's reminding me so much of Walter's father.
Carlo Jensen: Three seats right by the smoking lounge, if you please. Thank you. Now that wasn't so hard was it--Daddy little sour lemon tree?

Funny, but best forgotten.

I totally agree with Phrankster."Walter and Carlo" IS Denmark in the eighties. Everyone had been to Spain on Charter Holidays and the "folk comedy" genre was what we had all grown up with, so we could all relate to it, in opposition to the more "art cinema" oriented films. It is actually funny and bit anarchistic, and was a big office hit as far as I remember. Jarl Friis Mikkelsen and Ole Stephensen do a rather good job trying to revive the folk comedy, but...making TWO sequels, each one worse than the other. Well, Hollywood does it all the time. Anyway, that was what filled the seats at the time when movie theaters were closing down one by another around the country.
