Troll-elgen (The Troll Moose or The Magic Moose) is a Norwegian silent film from 1927. It is based on the novels Troll-elgen and Skoggangsmand by Mikkjel Fønhus. The film was directed by Walter Fürst,[1] [2] [3] and it stars Tryggve Larssen as Sjur Renna.[4]
The censors felt that a fight scene between Hans and Gunnar in the film, another violent scene, and intertitles reading Men slegtningen villde ikke være hjelpsom for ingenting 'But the relative didn't want to help with anything', when the sleazy uncle from Oslo tries to have his way with Ingrid, and Denne gang skal du være jenta mi enten du vil eller ikke 'This time you will be my girl whether you want to or not', when Gunnar forces himself on Ingrid, were too strong for the Norwegian public, and these were cut.[5] [6]
