Known For
Kvindelist og kærlighed
He is very happy – and proud! For he believes that he is a great, great hunter who brings home his beautiful prey, Eva. But she knows better, and so do her three sisters, who show up for the wedding, for girls naturally know everything there is to know about women's wiles and love. With a totally confused but sympathetic smile for the three unhappy women he did not get, he flees with his young bride. In return, the three amuse themselves by telling each other the true story—how things really went with the young couple—and the winding paths he took to reach his wedding. For it has always been the prey that has hunted the hunter, and – without him ever suspecting it – he has been more of a plaything than a Don Juan. What the girls "confess" to each other is not boring—it is a comedy—which, admittedly, is not about "that's how women are"! At most, it is about how women are like that too!
