Starring Hannah Schuygulla, Karl Löwitsch
Maria assumes her husband is lost during World War 2 and does whatever is needed to survive in the aftermath. Artfully shot, Fassbinder's story isn't just Maria's story: it's also a clever metaphor for the German "Economic Miracle" of the Fifties and Germany's regained place as a powerful nation. Rating: A–
