Hans in Luck
1936, German. Directed by Robert Herlth & Walter Röhrig.
Brothers Grimm adaptation. The story follows Hans, who, after seven years of service, is rewarded with a large lump of gold. As he travels home, he trades the gold for a horse, the horse for a cow, then a pig, a goose, and finally a grindstone. Despite losing the immense value of his initial payment, Hans feels increasingly free and happy, ultimately dropping the heavy stone into a well and rejoicing in having no burdens.
