Overview

Sven Methling was born on September 20, 1918 in Denmark as Sven Johan Methling. He was a director and writer, known for Fem mand og Rosa (1964), Krummerne (1991) and Passer passer piger (1965). He died on August 7, 2005 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Filminstruktør. Født 20/9 1918 (Sven Johan Methling), død 7/8 2005. Søn af skuespiller og instruktør Svend Methling (1891-1977).

Startede i filmbranchen som assistent på Palladium omkring 1940, kom siden til ASA og Gutenberghus og debuterede som spillefilminstruktør på Saga i 1952. Har instrueret mere end 40 spillefilm, hvoraf hovedparten er folkekomedier i 50'erne og 60'erne, bl.a. de fem Soldaterkammerater-film. I 70'erne og 80'erne blev det småt med opgaver for instruktøren Sven Methling, men i en alder af 73 år fik han i 1991 et stort comeback hos producent Regner Grasten med Krumme-serien (bestående af tre spillefilm og en julekalender).

Sven Methling har modtaget Bodilpriser for besættelsesdramaet "Der kom en dag" (1955) og den satiriske komedie "Vi er allesammen tossede" (1960).
