The Major and the Bulls (German: Der Major und die Stiere) is a 1955 West German comedy film directed by Eduard von Borsody and starring Fritz Tillmann, Christiane Hörbiger and Attila Hörbiger. It is based on the 1953 novel of the same title by Hans Venatier.[1] It was shot at the Bavaria Studios in Munich and in Wiesbaden. The film's sets were designed by the art director Ernst Schomer.
Following the Second World War, Allied forces arrive to occupy Germany. In Bavaria in the American Zone, an army major tries to prevent fraternising between his troops and the locals. This quickly breaks down as several romantic relationships begin between local girls and the G.I.s while the obstinate peasants eventually overcome their dislike of being ordered about by the military.
