回复 :麦特、朗恩和博尼三个人是好朋友。麦特的爸爸在十年前意外身亡。麦特和母亲相依为命。一天，麦特和朋友三人去树林里玩，不小心掉到了一个洞里，意外发现了一个邮包，三人交给了邮局，于是邮局将邮包内的信投递出去。意外的是麦特竟然收到了一封爸爸写给自己的信，信中称自己和迪莱克·詹姆思发现了一个秘密，可能有麻烦了，让妻子爱琳找到关于一张印错的梭罗邮票的报告副本，并且说在雨天他们常去的餐厅留下了惊喜。给小麦特写信是怕信被人劫走。而实际上，麦特的爸爸和迪莱克·詹姆思真的在一场意外中死了。麦特看完信后，敏感的感觉到信不一般，于是没有告诉妈妈，也没有报警，想自己查出来到底爸爸遇见的麻烦是怎么回事。于是麦特跟朋友去邮局询问那份报告。在邮局没有找到报告副本，反而引起了在邮局工作的杰克的主意，杰克联系了赛克斯，告诉他麦特在问这件事。麦特想起信中提起是迪莱克·詹姆思写的报告，于是去找詹姆思的女儿塔拉，塔拉十分叛逆，麦特吃了闭门羹。杰克和赛克斯在暗中关注麦特的行动，两个人都很担心，在争论中透露了事情的原委。原来整个事情是由一张印错的梭罗邮票引起的，有一批印错的邮票，政府强制收回邮票，只剩一张流落在外，印错的邮票很值钱，何况只有一张。幸运的是，这张邮票被杰克发现了，他想占为己有，迪莱克·詹姆思反对，想上交，并且将在报社工作的麦特的爸爸牵扯进来了。市长麦克斯和杰克杀人灭口，想将邮票夺回，无奈杀了二人之后还是没能找到邮票。不料十年后，又有人旧事重提。麦特说服迪莱克·詹姆思的女儿塔拉跟自己去调查。麦特去找另一条线索——雨中常去的餐厅，跟妈妈侧面打听到雨中的餐厅后，和塔拉潜入餐厅，却一无所获。麦特坚信爸爸给妈妈的惊喜应该在点唱机里，于是辗转找到了当时的那个点唱机，找到了那张邮票。在回来的路上，两个人被警察抓住。之后，塔拉心灰意冷，认为拿到邮票也不能怎么样，想离开小镇。麦特鼓励塔拉留下，留下的理由就是塔拉有自己。杰克得知麦特拿到了邮票，绑架了麦特和他可，逼迫麦特去取邮票，拿塔拉当人质。最后亨得利警官赶来，混战之后制服了杰克，杰克带领警察前去指认赛克斯。自此，麦特的爸爸和塔拉的爸爸两个人的死因终于天下大白了。根据法规规定，麦特现在是邮票的合法新主人，虽然邮票只值从前的一半。麦特和塔拉也成为了好朋友，最后麦特和塔拉相视而笑。故事告一段落。

回复 :The history of Danish country church architecture is told by showing scenes of how the church was used by the congregation, beginning with the celebration of mass in a small and simple wooden church 800 years ago, and ending with the congregation singing in a village church of to-day. The development and the growth of the pattern of church architecture is shown.Dreyer in this film shows a series of churches from different periods with churchgoers in period clothing. Each period is separated by a shot of a church bell double-exposed on the sky. Although the film has a vibrant and instructive way of communicating the different epochs and styles to students, it does not exhibit the artistic quality that usually distinguishes a Dreyer film, except perhaps in some of the costumes, which were originally made for Day of Wrath.The board of Dansk Kulturfilm in autumn 1945 decided that their planned church film would exclusively be about village churches. Dreyer would rework the script that was written by editor and folk high-school principal Bernhard Jensen, aided by a committee of experts consisting of architect H. Lønborg-Jensen and Victor Hermansen, curator at the National Museum of Denmark. Dreyer had a first draft ready in mid-March, entitled Kirken er et gammelt Hus ("The Church Is an Old House"), which was distributed to the members of the committee for their comments.In the last half of July, Dreyer and Victor Hermansen travelled the country to look at suitable churches. They researched the details and at Dreyer’s request a number of technical changes were made to the churches, including the removal of porcelain holders for electrical wiring in Tveje Merløse Church.On 4 July, Dreyer went in advance to Ringkøbing. Shooting was set to start a few days later with the arrival of the director of photography, Preben Frank, who had fallen off a ladder and broken his leg, Fortunately, he was ready to cautiously start working again within a few days, with his leg in a cast.Otherwise, the production went without a glitch. Everywhere, Dreyer said, they were well received at the vicarages and they had no problem getting enough extras. On 1 august, they returned to Copenhagen with almost all their footage in the can. They only needed to film the church in Skelby, where the weather had been against them, plus a Swedish wooden church in Hedared. The economy was distressed so soon after the war, especially when it came to foreign currency, but there were no real wooden churches left in Denmark and building an interior set in the studio would be too expensive.The finished film was shown for the first time on 24 September 1947 to a small, closed circle, which included the Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs. In December 1947, as was Dansk Kulturfilm’s standard practice, the film was presented to the press, politicians and others on a programme with four other short films.
