Matto regiert
Leopold Lindtberg
Heinrich Gretler, Heinz Woester
If any one man is responsible for the rejuvenation of the postwar Swiss film industry, that man was director Leopold Lindtberg. Matto Regiert (Madness Rules) was co-adapted for the screen by Lindtberg from a novel by Friedrich Glauser. Heinrich Gretler stars as Police Constable Studer, the hero of several of Glauser's most popular works. This time, Studer must solve the murder of the director of an insane asylum -- and it's not (surprise, surprise) the most likely suspect, manic-depressive patient Herbert Caplaun. For box-office purposes, Matto Regiert stresses a romantic subplot involving Caplaun and nurse Irma Wasem.

Der Geist von Allenwil
Max Haufler
Schaggi Streuli, Helen Vita
Schaggi Streuli was not his real name. Born Emil Kägi, he had little luck in the first 30 years of his life. As the sixth child of an alcoholic and also a divorce goof, it wasn't easy for Schaggi Streuli. After that he tried unsuccessfully as a pickle in Ticino and a butcher offshoot. His only consolation, acting. And as it turned out later; also his calling.
