A so-so Heimat comedy centered around the two star-twins of the 50's in Germany: the Günther-twins (of "Das doppelte Lottchen" fame) and the gorgeous Kessler Twins. However, the twins do not match as in their late teens the Güthers are dull ladies without any spark, while the Kesslers are fresh and jolly as ever. Alas the Kesslers are hardly given anything to do that is within their (song and dance) line. Together they have a theme song that is sung until not only the twins are tired from it, but the viewer also.
Franz Antel's direction is adequate, but no more than that; he can not be suspected of a real thought-out mise-en-scene and direction. Hans Moser has his usual charm, but cannot save this one. Have plenty of the in this film promoted wine at hand to sit this one out.
