1980 • Director: Rainer Werner Fassbinder
Drama • Unrated • 894 minutes
Bavaria Film / Bavaria Film International
Color • Language: German (with English subtitles)
Starring Günter Lamprecht, Barbara Sukowa
Set during the Twenties, this is a sprawling, complex fifteen hour long film that defies description. Prostitutes, angels, mystical rabbis, glowering criminals, and a parade of fascinating characters dip in and out of the narrative. The epilogue itself is a bizarre vision that seems to include every actor Fassbinder ever employed. Rating: A
