Die Kleine mit dem süßen Po is an interesting piece from the mid-70s comedy scene, blending innocence with quite the adult twist. The plot is absurd yet oddly charming, featuring a naive innkeeper from the Alps who stumbles into a world he clearly doesn't understand. The pacing is a bit uneven but that just adds to its quirky charm. The performances have a certain rawness, particularly from the innkeeper, which really captures that naive essence. It’s notable for its practical effects, or lack thereof in some scenes, where the humor takes center stage. The juxtaposition of a family-friendly setup with the underbelly of a sex shop gives it a distinctive flavor that’s hard to find in contemporary comedies.
This film has been surprisingly elusive on home video, with only a handful of VHS editions floating around and no recent remastering in sight. Its rarity has piqued collector interest, though those who have managed to find it often rave about its unique comedic approach, which stands apart from typical fare of its time. The film's odd premise and the interplay of family values with underworld dealings create a curious artifact for those interested in niche European cinema from the 1970s.
