Andersson's Kalle (Swedish: Anderssonskans Kalle) is a 1950 Swedish comedy film directed by Rolf Husberg and starring Kai Gullmar, Harriet Andersson and Rut Holm.[1][2] The film's sets were designed by the art director Bibi Lindström. It is based on the novel of the same title by Emil Norlander, which has been adapted into films on several occasions.

Synopsis

[edit]

Kalle is a young boy from the Södermalm district of Stockholm who love playing practical jokes. His widowed mother feels that he is just showing youthful high spirits but others in the neighbourhood, including the local police officer, strongly disagree. Meanwhile, his elder sister Majken is being courted by two suitors.
