Syv dage for Elisabeth

Syv dage for Elisabeth (Seven Days for Elizabeth) is a Norwegian silent film comedy from 1927 directed by Leif Sinding. The screenplay was written by Sinding and Arvid Skappel, and it was based on Skappel's novella Påskeflirt. Sonja Henie played a bit part in the film. The censors removed a closeup of a female dancer, the text Jeg vil, men først vi je ha dig sel 'I want to, but first I want you myself', and a brawl scene.
