Ragnarock (1973)
Dette er den første norskproduserte musikkfilm, tatt opp i Holmenkollen søndag 17. juni 1973. Med.: Aunt Mary, Sigbjørn Berhoft Osa og Saft, Hvalsøespillemendene, Merit Hemmingson och Folkmusikgruppen, Prudence, Splash, Savage Rose, Culpeper's Orchard, Skin Alley, Mungo Jerry, Pretty Things, Burken och Rockfolket og Popol Vuh. Ideen bak Ragnarock er blant annet å vise sammenhengen mellom folkemusikkrytmer og rockerytmer. Derfor er det fortrinnsvis skandinaviske grupper som er med - og i filmens åpningssekvens spilles både norsk, dansk og svensk folkemusikk. Konserten foregikk søndag 17. juni 1973 ved Holmenkollbakken.

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
In the spirit of Woodstock and other large scale music festivals of the period, Norwegian audiences finally got their own festival in June 1973. This was Ragnarock - actually named after Ragnarokk, the Norse version of the Armageddon - sporting a plethora of Norwegian, Scandinavian and also a few international artists.The movie is a 102 minute representation of this ambitious event, and it does indeed bear several similarities to the Woodstock movie. Although not quite as successful (both artistically and of course commercially, much due to the fact that the average standard of the featured artist may not be as high), this movie is still quite an entertaining piece of Norwegian cultural history. Worth seeing and hearing. Keep your eyes open for some great looking people, both on and off stage.
