Makkers Staakt Uw Wild Geraas plot

Humor and tragedy strikes three families in Amsterdam who are busy preparing for a wonderful evening. That evening is not so wonderful for everyone and not every package on Christmas Eve opens with unsurpassed joy. After all, one marriage is linked to mutual incomprehension, the other struggles with their little boy of a son and in the third family the hubby prefers to look for his Sinterklaas surprises in the form of slippers outside the door. The dark time of sluggish holidays may soften hearts for a short time, but after the departure of the Good Saint, the golden glow of reconciliation is over for another year and everyone is dependent on each other again. Makkers Strike Uw Wild Geraas was awarded a Silver Bear at the Berlin Film Festival in 1961.

Everything is Love avant la lettre, unfortunately played a bit stiffly but gives a nice picture of the times. 3*

After discussing the countryside in Dorp aan de Rivier, Rademakers heads into the big city. And this doesn't go well for him with Makkers Staakt Uw Wild Rage. This is not due to the rather fascinating scenario or the often picturesque atmospheric images. It is mainly in the actors who (as Rademakers has sometimes been accused) work like little Rademakers. As a result, the film becomes rather dry and insufficient emphasis is placed on the important situations. Nevertheless, we do get to see some very fascinating images and at times a nice Sinterklaas atmosphere.

An amusing title for an amusing comic drama that gives a good impression of the spirit of the times. It outlines the fortunes of three families from the arrival of Sinterklaas until Sinterklaas Eve, a period in which they face a dilemma. Rademakers keeps it all light with some entertaining visual jokes, especially around Sinterklazen walking up and down the street, traveling on public transport or (after Pakjesavond) dancing a tango – possibly a tribute to the tango scene in [i ]Some Like It Hot[/i].
