Two actresses in their forties, meet at a casting. Since they are both struggling to get jobs they decide to team up and make their own thing. But it's uphill, and they're certainly over the hill, in the eyes of the industry. Despite their differences, the two women become friends.
(Note: This series from Denmark's Radio is in the Danish language and currently unavailable with English subtitles) Making people laugh, does not come naturally for this unlikely pair of Danish actresses who decide to form a comedic entertainment duo. But that certainly doesn't stop them from trying. An odd couple in many ways, the two form a bond that slowly transforms into a force of nature. Each episode features brilliant physical comedy, along with some embarrassing sexual situations, which Americans might find offensive. (The Danes are quite proud of their often politically incorrect and bawdy humor.) If you are familiar with Danish TV and film, it will be no surprise at how well this series was cast. There are no false notes among an impressive ensemble which includes veteran Danish players. Hopefully, these first eight episodes of the rambunctious "Ditte and Louise" are just a start to a potentially legendary comedic partnership.
