STROSZEK - Werner Herzog (1977) - ★★★
The marginality is exacerbated by eccentric characters, very Herzogian. Bruno S., an atypical musician, is brilliant and wildly guided by his impulses for freedom in a fierce world. The ending of this road movie is confusing.

LA BALLADE DE BRUNO - Werner Herzog (1977) - ★★★
---
La marginalité exacerbée avec des personnages excentriques, très herzogiens. Bruno Stroszek en musicien atypique, est génial et follement guidé par ses pulsions de liberté dans un monde féroce. La fin de ce road movie est déroutante. #germanfilm #film #cinema #microc ritique #cinemastodon #cine #WernerHerzog #filmallemand
If you've never seen The Nasty Girl / Das schreckliche Mädchen, or you haven't rewatched it lately, now is a really good time to sit down and watch it if you can find it.
Looks like #FromHildeWithLove will be released in UK cinemas from June 27.

PORT OF FREEDOM (’44): I hope you like accordions! Hans Albers busts out some serious tunes in this propaganda-free #wwii #germanfilm as he entertains at local red-light district nightclub, when not pining for the sea or falling for his late brother’s ex. Ilse Werner perfect as the country girl ex. She gets some radiant, beautiful close-ups in back half as romantic tension crescendos. Agfacolor visually pleasing. Had some poetic realism vibes at times- though we get happy endings all around.

Slavoj Zizek voted for THE GREAT SACRIFICE (’44) in Sight & Sound’s top 10 poll both this year & 2012. So yeah, full disclosure, director Veit Harlan & wife/star Kristina Soderbaum made some pretty baaaaad Nazi propaganda films (JEW SUSS for one). This isn’t one, at least overtly. A bewitching romance/love triangle, with stunning Agfacolor bringing it all to life. Really liked how Irene von Meyendorff (potential loser in the triangle) handled it all. Ending really beautifully done. #germanfilm
