What happens

Die Supernasen is a 1983 West German comedy film featuring Thomas Gottschalk and Mike Krüger. The name of the movie, "The Supernoses", refers to both having big noses while at the same time being a malapropism for "Spürnasen", a colloquialism for "investigator". The two have worked together in the four popular movies making up the so-called Supernasen-series. They were mostly college movies in a German setting - two naughty young men in Bavaria, with beautiful girls and funny complications. Their other collaborations were Piratensender Powerplay Zwei Nasen tanken Super Die Einsteiger (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
