De witte

De witte (1934)

The first movie version, from the age of black & white, of Flemish (heimat-)author Ernest Claes' classical novel, titled after the nickname (Dutch 'the White', referring to a blond male) of the main character: a smart but naughty farmhand's son whose eternal mischief, pranks and disobedience drive his elders (especially teachers, family and father's grumpy employer, a rich farmer) and classmates to despair in a time when a boy's punishment was still inevitable, swift and often severe.

Production

Edith Kiel added a love story to the original storyline made by Ernest Claes, something the original author did not like. Another aspect with which this time the Church had difficulties was the minimalized role of the village priest. The main role was interpreted by Jef Bruyninckx.
