Review of Lion Hunting

Lion Hunting (1907)
5/10
The launch of Danish cinema
10 April 2002
Løvejagten is a Danish classic and was the beginning of an era where Hollywood was located in the Danish Valby!!! With that I mean that between 1909-16 Ole olsens Nordisk film was one of the worlds leading movie compagnies and like the Hollywood compagnies todays dominated the market. What was so special about løvejagten and why it launched the Danish movie industry is because a real lion is shot and killed and that shocked the audience then. It is not a good movie/short, but it is important in a historical view because it launched the first golden age of Danish cinema.
