Star of "Windjammer"
Harald Tusberg passes away at 88 years old.
Harald Tusberg was the most known actor from the film Windjammer. After the
films world wide success, he enjoyed a brief success in a pop group called
“The Windjammers”. He started his professional television career in Sydney
in 1961, and moved back to Norway in 1962 and started to work at The
Norwegian Broadcasting Company. He quickly became one of the key players to
develop new programs and ideas for humour and entertainment programs. The
Norwegian version of “Candid camera” is still remembered to this day. During
the 60s, 70s and 80s he was a very well know name in tv entertainment, and
from 1979 – 1990 he was the boss of the entertainment department at NRK,
which was at that point the only Norwegian TV channel.

In 1990 Tusberg and Mr. Sven Erik Libæk saw a 3-strip presentation of
"Windjammer" in a private home
in Austrialia, and that screening inspired him to see the movie again on
the big screen. After several years it looked that key players in the 70mm
community with a famous name like Harald pushing it and being the promoter
for the event actually be able to pull it off and get Windjammer back on the
big screen at Colosseum where
it once premiered. Read
more about here.
Sadly the project collapsed, mainly due to Mr. Tusbergs unfortunate
stroke in 1996. The TV entertainer and major evening talk show host which
once could sing and dance lost his ability to speak at only 61 years old. A
big loss for the Norwegian entertainment industry. He spent the rest of his
life at a nursing home with mainly contact from his loving family.
In May 2010 "Windjammer" was presented in a digital “facelift”
version based on a 35mm Scope film print at Cinemateket in Oslo.

So many of the remaining cast & crew
members turned up for the screening, and the films biggest stars Lasse
Kaalstad, Kaare Terland and in a wheel chair due to his health issue – Mr.
Harald Tusberg. If I had not been there, I am not sure if I would have
believed it: Seeing his Windjammer friends again Harald raised up on his
feet and walked and gave his old friends a big hug. I was fortunate to sit
close by him during the screening and heard him sing and hum to the songs
during the movie being screened. After the screening I could see him being
very moved and touched by the experience with a tear in his eye. I felt the
same way when I heard about his death.
