Germany 1974, 140 minutes, B / W
Dir. Rainer Werner Fassbinder
In German with English subtitles

Topics: Period - 1800s.

 

Aroview: Thoughtful drama, from provocative German Dir. Fassbinder, recounting the story of a stifled married woman whose long hidden affair reveals itself with terrific consequence. Based on the Theodor Fontane novel, this Prussian placed melodrama is quite simply a flawed but fantastical black and white delight.
