Lili Marleen [Digitally Remastered Edition]

[Machine Translation] Rainer Werner Fassbinder, one of the standard-bearers of the "New German Cinema" alongside Wim Wenders and Werner Herzog, left behind 44 films in his mere 37 years of life, and had a profound influence on the filmmakers who followed in his footsteps. Fassbinder's masterpiece from the latter half of his career has been re-released on DVD in Japan in the latest master version! Fassbinder's greatest work has been vividly restored in a 4K digitally remastered version. Lily Marlene," a song that captured the hearts of soldiers from both sides during World War II. This is a masterpiece of melodrama that portrays the life of the real-life female singer who became a star with that one song in a gorgeously filmed and beautifully photographed film. Hannah Sigura ("The Marriage of Maria Brown") ('78) gives a glamorous performance as Billie, who, despite being torn apart by her Jewish lover and scorned as the mascot of the Nazi party, remains faithful to her love and continues to perform on stage. Giancarlo Giannini, the handsome Italian actor from Luchino Visconti's "Innocent" ('76), plays Robert, a musician who falls madly in love with Billy. The film also features a splendid cast including Mel Farrar, Audrey Hepburn's husband, and Udo Kier, a regular in Lars von Trier's films, and tells the story of a woman who is tossed about by the times but never bends her convictions. Commentary booklet & postcard enclosed!
