About This Movie

Copper is a 1976 action, crime, and thriller film directed by Crone Film Produktion A/S. It follows Detective Karl Jørgensen as he navigates a complex case involving his ex-wife, leading him to uncover deeper corruption.

In Copper, Detective Karl Jørgensen faces challenges after being transferred to the fraud department following a stint in a sanatorium. His investigation into a case linked to his ex-wife and her new husband leads him to confront the police chief and uncover a web of corruption involving the city's mayor and a major contractor.

The film features a strong cast, including Jens Okking, Otto Brandenburg, and Birgit Sadolin. As Jørgensen teams up with journalist John Bullnes, they delve deeper into the investigation, only to face roadblocks that complicate their progress. The action and tension escalate as personal stakes rise and the pursuit of truth becomes increasingly dangerous.

Copper has seen limited releases over the years, primarily on VHS, which has made it a bit of a rarity among collectors. Its obscure director and the film’s unique blend of genres contribute to a niche interest. Original prints are hard to come by, and the scarcity of quality transfers keeps it on the radar for those who appreciate vintage crime thrillers. The film tends to pop up at genre festivals, sparking discussions among collectors about its atmospheric qualities.
