So, 'Die bumsfidelen Mädchen vom Birkenhof' is one of those quirky comedies that revels in its own absurdity. Set in a picturesque Swiss guest house, it’s got that laid-back mountain vibe that contrasts with the chaos the sisters create, especially when they decide to duke it out in the barn. The nudity feels playful rather than exploitative, and the performances have this raw, unfiltered energy that brings the whole thing to life. The pacing is brisk, keeping the laughs and the antics rolling along, making it a curious piece of Euro-cinema that doesn’t take itself too seriously. You can’t help but appreciate its unique charm and the way it captures that carefree spirit of the 70s.
This film isn’t easily found in most typical collections, making it a bit of a treasure for those who appreciate the more obscure side of 70s comedies. Its scarcity has piqued the interest of niche collectors who enjoy European cinema's more playful and risqué offerings. Formats have varied over the years, with some collectors still hunting for the original VHS, while others seek out DVD releases, which might be challenging to track down. Overall, it remains a curious piece of film history for those inclined to explore the boundaries of comedic storytelling.
