Titolo: DENMARK CALLING ALBERTO FARINA

Hi, Alberto
Sorry, to butt in this way, but a can't reach you on your email.
Your question corcerning Carl Th. Dreyer's "Praesidenten" was a tough
one. Here is what I could collect of information; "Praesidenten" was
first shown in Sweden, February 1919.
I have a question for you too; I recently found a copy of "Bruce Lee
Fights Back From the Grave" (on sleeve it states one Bert Lenzi as the
director). Some sources credits Umberto Lenzi as the director (under a
Doo Yong Lee pseudonym), but all of my reference books don't regard it
as a Lenzi-flick. Now my question is; Is it a Umberto Lenzi, if so what
is it's original title?

Before you buy.

 is it's original title?
I'll check this out and let you know. On his filmo I can't find anything
that could remotely be connected to that title. Any other hints (date,
main actors, plot)? Steve, any ideas?
Oh, hjr: wouldn't you give me the URL of the Absurd website? I put on my
personal website the italian version of your interview to my father and
I'd like to link the page to the magazine in the movie links.

 main actors, plot)? Steve, any ideas?
I can only confirm the absence of anything related to kung fu movies in
Lenzi' s filmography.
I would like to know something more about that movie, mostly on screen
credits for director and main actors.
It is very strange the fact that the video sleeve credits Lenzi as the
director.
Btw, there is a 1979 circa Bruce Lee clone, called "Challenge of the tiger",
starring Bruce Le and, if i remeber, Richard Harrison, probably directed by
Luigi Batzella (aka Paolo Solvay).
I have the tape somewhere, but it is very difficult for me now to check the
director' s pseudonym on the main titles (i should find that tape among a
real huge mess of tapes).
Let me know
Steve (aka Luca Rea)

I'll post info (credit on both on film and video-sleeve)
regarding "Bruce Lee Fights Back From the Grave" as soon as possible.

 that could remotely be connected to that title. 
OK, the first results of my research is that you can definitely rule out
this title from Lenzi's filmography. I just had a brief phone chat with
Mr. Lenzi himself and he denies any involvement with this title.
He said he'd heard about it already -I was not the first to ask.
However, although he has shot movies within almost EVERY movie genre
that ever existed, he has never directed any karate movie. He only
mentioned the movie he shot in the far East -"Il paese del sesso
selvaggio", shot in Thailand (the working title was "L'uomo del fiume
profondo") which, in his words, "would later spawn the cannibal
subgenre", in which, I may add, Lenzi himself would have feasted in the
80's.
"Bert Lenzi" never existed as a Lenzi pseudo. He thinks it must have
been one of those tricks played by ruthless video distributors to cash
on his popularity. He told me a couple of years ago he bought a
classy-looking VHS of his own "Da Corleone a Brooklyn". Much to his
chagrin, the tape turned out to be struck from a badly scratched working
copy, and it was missing main and end titles, and a whole reel in the
middle.
I hope this helps you out. Let us know some more about the credits of
that movie, or about whatever appears on the sleeve.
(My e-mail should be working again soon, hopefully)
