I. Think. That. The marriage of maria blount was a vine of on a fast business movie filmed nine hundred Seventy Eight. Played by homicide good luck married to a german officer during an air raid when the war ended on the eighth of may nine hundred forty five the husband was posted missing. While she waited for his return she got bonded working in a bar germany was in ruins but for maria it was the beginning of an unstoppable search says. By the time a husband returned ten years later shed become a rich business woman from china than a fassbinder my hear but also imported to young west german republic which pursued its reconstruction with determination and without remorse but without coming to terms with its nazi past secretary of treasury henry morgan told you recommended at the conclusion of the war germany should be changed into a farm. In other words the german nation should be who could. Use this to germany for its. History. And in many. Business been on the ship on monday sort of the fall of. The of. That was interesting. Is that in the. Midst. Of justin and one new. Line of than a fassbinder was born in the rulings on the thirty first of may nine hundred forty five just three weeks after the capitulation of the third eye in the wake of this event a defeated and hungry germany was divided into a capitalist west and a communist east the start of the cold war in the west the Marshall Plan came into force in one nine hundred forty eight with the purpose of rebuild. The shattered continent this special chapter of german history coincided with been dissed childhood and became the fundamental theme of his films. Everything you do is a compilation of experiences youve. My experience i had as a child a teenager in school and at home ole somehow in my films as well. Even if there arent any children in the films ive made that doesnt mean the experiences of my childhood arent in those films. Theres maybe you could interpret not saying that my childhood wasnt a childhood in the normal sense. You dont sense here that it. In fact. And then you have to learn seven make up. And hide in touch. The film was very successful in germany because on the one hand this woman embodied a turning point in german history but on the other hand she was also a popular character a selfmade woman who gets to the top under her own steam. That woman the film is a message of hope but also showed how hard life was in postwar germany you know the scene its got instructed built in and then a play i think it. Is a good thats really good she says she feels. It. Starts so thats how ill. Ill share so. Its just busy you want to shake. It is not a sort of if you want to call him a one that takes you to come on the give a tough time. And the turkish lets see. Us with that scene here playing a black Market Dealer met hamish a gorilla acting school in one nine hundred sixty five in one hundred sixty seven they joined the action theater in munich a protest there to that fassbinder soon took over he wrote directed and acted in critical plays that confronted German Society head on. A listen seemingly emain scene of a but he was a very sensitive and although he didnt see himself as a teacher he sensor size people in a provocative way that really touched them and you can feel how connected he was to society as outsiders. There was a lot of rebel and a lost soul in him one who identified with the outsiders in this world and in German Society you dont defeat every maids who mourned any poor me just to see the animal. And so i know he wasnt respected for his work because he was so provocative he made films that didnt have anything to do with the mainstream films like fear eats the soul which is about immigration and fox and his friends which is about homosexuality. Homosexuality. After his first feature film love is colder than death which was produced in one nine hundred sixty nine and gave her first leading role fassbender made more than thirty films in the following ten years including the bitter tears of paper fun cant really fear its the soul and fox and his friends but. What drives you to make so many films. And thats the question. It must be a form of mental illness. I dont know. He said that he was the a tour around both of cinema a tortured soul someone who couldnt bear life and needed it at the same time. First been there that. We were so. Fast in his films are provocative bellicose and often autobiographical he surrounded himself with a group of technicians and actors of diverse talents they made up his clan. Kind of became one of his most important muses. The Shirley College student caught the news first if he already had a vision at acting school live. By even then he recognized me as he later wrote his driving force so his support and the star of his films because he always knew he was going to make films. Too short to left have to feel. Civilized and star she was his star she got her own lighting he always treated her better than all the other actresses him up as a hundred guys early on and asked to live in an honor was always somehow inviolable she had this aura of dont touch dont her to me and always the best light in us and thats really where most posts on the most joins the list. Of. Wanted for the role of money ya balon not me. See if you give me. That kick that the two of them didnt have any chemistry i never found out why he would just sit but i miss you paul. A no. For the two of us it was a very strong new beginning because we hadnt worked together for four years. After this break i was very interested in playing. After weeks of waiting my dear gives up hope that shell see her husband again she takes a job as a hostess in a bar to entertain american soldiers thats where she meets bill a short while later one of how many as friends returns from imprisonment and tells her husband is dead if she. Will. Then theres the scene in which she insists on going to the bar. I remember how fast and address the many extras on set. The sixth hour and that bit so senior. He said you have to consider that this woman has just had a very shattering experience and now she is dividing the dancing crowd like moses divided the red sea more at sea than we have. For just. I am. Being. A bunch more diplomatic in the soundtrack is very american theres a lot of jazz it transports you to a different world and culture in which the german aspect is almost lost in the first part moviegoers definitely need to understand english otherwise they wont follow the story for you see. This is not his times because you have to have a final thought one day. If you could manage to make films not sorry as beautiful and lovely as these American Films that i love he can see and see and not seen but that also tell proper story because most if not would be the ultimate heat and id see him come. Proper stories you have to be sorry to reality into the country where you live for meals amusements watch films on these facilities and for me they have to be german films and i try to make these german films as if we had hollywood as if the actors i was working with were hollywood actors or which are you know. And like the hollywood films fassbender gave his leading ladies a lot of space they were intelligent seductive independent and sometimes victims to. Women fassbender says a more complex personalities they seem to be able to fall out of their roles and do things you never thought them capable. Yeah. Me i think im im follows he was a womans director he knew and understood womens minds to default on. Good first and first time on youth looked after with him as a director of call home. It was. Not just how to hold my son for bit dr stark to try an argument that was also down to his role model douglas sirk and with American Cinema the cinema of the stars where the women were already big heroines in the fiftys or you move on. The german director douglas sirk whose career started with you for went into exile in hollywood in one nine hundred fifty seven where he rose to become the king of melodrama encounter with cirque was a turning point in fast and does work the two became friends for brown he was inspired by six a time to love and a time to die fassbinder took on the language the warm colors and stylized backdrops of his mental he even took inspiration from the story its about a missing soldier returning from the front to a germany in ruins. She. Says. He said youre a moral in this scene you dont have a bad conscience when you see him youre just full of joy. Two sector men sat there for it but it doesnt even occur to you that youre doing something that could hard to make peace in a blue sea or kenya badgers peace because people thought you were doing something bad. Because you always kept the most important part of yourself back for tomorrow in the event that your husband returns. And then you commit this murder as if in a trance. You take the bottle and kill him as if in a trance. To material costs. After bills murder helma takes the blame and is sentenced in marias place she promises to wait for him until his release maria continues to love her husband but she wholeheartedly throws herself into a new life. When fighting back any chance and putting. Him. Into office and. Then he dismayed sixty six jenny. You see. Here from. The station. So. To my argument there she was a person who took matters into her own hands went and determined things for herself and for others or was one not as was the exciting aspect of this character you months she wasnt a victim she was a leader she drove things for her want to swim i think its hot six hundred seventy nine can you sit this woman would never say if maybe in those circumstances. To say see kate suzanne wavering on how to. Not zidane as you might have highness suppose very little about not being a brown and the back story is that but. Told me once and this was the only thing he told me that this was the story of his mother. And his mother was his Reference Point she lived in modest circumstances but she had worked for all that herself she didnt take anything that came to her by inheritance nish from norman bust. Jewish jewish to make these are things that are coupled to that generation doesnt it thing that you know committees are going to whats wrong to try not to bore nonsense while she was born in one nine hundred twenty two and he took some of my idea brown from her not to live up to cook baldness. Safely and hunnish doesnt resemble hes a lot to eat an outward appearance hes about to invade their mission but if you would have maybe a bone dhamma i was twenty two when i worked as editor on that film i saw maria brown as my idol. My dad was a very emancipates were a film for me and a real example of everything that was possible was on those by screen. And this. Mom can do no wrong to anyone. Else then after i study about. This topic. Which isnt because chatted first meeting. They like to think its make us think its a guy. Making a mistake yeah. I just get a spot in. The character isnt necessarily always likeable but if the times shes really under likable i mean the way she treats all bald is sometimes on the pale. Thin capitalist moves she uses capitalism to be a success but otherwise shes just small. Guns climate would. She wants to be successful but her happiness is an illusion and i think the film shows that for me the film sickens the sooners expenses and it looks a bit about. My state of the tax that is cut and paste it to us. That our descendants shift. To the after the much a hiring scene fassbinder wrap made by the shoulder never forget this in. The skin he said i have to tell you something now. I think this will be a really good films have. Sufficiently that. I dont. Hide the fact that i. Was. Taught. By the early fifties the defeated germany was recovering and on the way to becoming one of europes most powerful states maria browns success was a metaphor of this economic miracle. By starting the film with a picture of hitler and finishing it with portraits of the west german chancellor since Adenauer Fassbender criticize their silence regarding naziism and the methods their governments accused to achieve economic success. In iraq economy. If you spoke to germans about the economic miracle at the time the nazis were basically barbarians who came from heaven knows where occupied germany and call. A huge amount of chaos and then they were thrown out by the allies that was it it wasnt the germans or the dean not if occasion process took place and then the people said weve changed we had nothing to do with that what happened no idea dont ask my neighbor. I you can sure ship us if im on the end of whether i want you to buy that first spender rebelled against this very conservative germany because he revealed its contradiction in slys and hypocrisy but he still seem also almost its easy peasy. It said lead mallya sit then leave and he said well right said geminis a history book with pages torn out as c c g never as you lackey it but then you had the generation that included Fassbender Kluger them then does margarita from tata learned off and help and they filled in these missing pages. These young filmmakers reinvented german cinema and also embodied the rebellion of the postwar generation against their parents in the seventys their films question German Society at a time when it was being confronted with the Student Movement and feminist demands at the same time west germany had to deal with a much more radical form of violence the terrorism of the Red Army Faction the bottom on hope groups or itself has been guerrillas fighting american interests and the german state. Being nine hundred seventy seven they abducted and killed hans Martin Schreier the president of the confederation of the german employees associations and a former nazi this plunged the country into a state of emergency. In that south as detroit the army for its own good if indulged under the time that the Red Army Faction was active in germany with its attacks and bombings. He said i dont throw bombs through films. Is rare for food and. Many of us went abroad at that time then vendors went to america then to say. Migrated to italy and then france. With all falls i was in france and fassbinder wanted to live elsewhere to. Have a base to visit well. We didnt want to be forced to identify with something that was too overpowering all the time issues. To torino. To protest against allegedly suspicious suicides of imprisoned members of the Red Army Faction a group of german filmmakers in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven made the movie germany in autumn. Fassbender who was about to start filming the marriage of my dear brown decided to get involved using a documentary style he filmed an argument with his mother about democracy and the treatment of the terrorists. I said yes. In mogadishu and i was just as you said the most scared history. Yeah. I felt this in stark i thought oh. Ok just in the cottage just a few more conscious fell to my cottage she said just such a sad yet shes made often not even good at learning to speak reasonably essentially says you cant dynamite i think thats one of my not my fault. Oh times up michelle the mug shot sadly and as i do sometimes you. The kinds i feel if you meet me im going to concoct a fit you go in there a sham that anyone who deviated in any way from the norm was immediately a Red Army Faction sympathizer people so. Thats why i shouldnt go off and the others made that film to highlight that climate it wasnt just the Red Army Faction that was frightening it was German Society and the german state as well before i dont know what do you know its not just. That almihdhar. Thats just. Guessing since you know maybe thats another discussion its out is it. Because comedy. And gas and things. And economists and. Night. I mean. German character bear them kind of arc to this story it reveals a lot when she says she wants to have the terrorists shot or everyone said that is a yes nobody can. My mother and i and thats a special next i. Think with i didnt see her as a mother until fairly late. So we have a lot to come to terms with. Thats one way of putting that the other is weve tried to build Something Like a normal friendship. Maybe thats because shes in the films which so. We call it. Took us five. Chapters from the sector speech. To battle this fire upon this to make the case for yourself to speak on because its nice if you. Could say i dont tell us what. It. Was until now you have expressed being deaf sick you bastard mantilla filming with fast been know was always like a human lebar a train. But a man of a. He didnt treat everyone equally it was the carrot for salmon the stick for others he flew. In for with others again he might stood up the old vic he treated some with deep respect while confronting others with their own black hole and. Conduct the. Contest he could be a dictator he could hurt people a lot and they didnt all put up with it normally it takes two to tango thats why so and so theyve gone. I mean the one who puts up with the bullying and im the one who bullies thats who go on about survivor. He could be so cruel that people ran off the set screaming at. Him from didnt come back. With of me to be there calm that was a speciality he had this was an expert saluted for me. Now first ok actually even it was often even i had some producers here in berlin and when i said i was going to make this film with him they said heavens you cant work with fast and i was only making fast banaba obscene whether you were treated well or badly and you never knew where you were with them when one but you could be someone he currently hated or someone he currently liked and appears on t. V. Carter. Not knowing keeps people tents particularly those who were dependent on him. For and i was in the fortunate situation of not being dependent on him. Up and when you bend i always made sure not state the case twenty mopping if youve been. In it yeah yeah yeah but its like. You cannot. Turn in any other course now he thought for a while and had a better idea he was very competitive he always wanted to be better and most of the time he was. And that was a great pleasure to me because that made me back to two i learned a lot of people is what im up for the next time i suggested i was seen could be down i was back and he was matter how fantasy design kind of ice from here on disinvestment and all eyes of first husband was like a madman on set. And he knew where the camera should be even if the cameraman thought it would be better elsewhere. For good he would say no i want the camera here. And he was famous for always filming scenes in one take three of them to. Get the eight. Of them across the country. Yeah i see that as your standard and just a. Fan do it for who wants to do a second take if the first one is good. That created tension too because we never knew whether wed get a Second Chance just like life you get no repeats then life just goes on if we only. This i wasnt so i dont like and how. I was a man unsung. And of living there they had their own style and i was lived. Here in kent he did. It was all because of the ski talk on the stone but he sucked at other justice of a. Dubious visit for a good part of him. So it is time for us out. Here brown success is complete shes become the advisor to the french industrialist. And his lover holds about terminally ill decides to visit my us husband how much in prison to propose a deal is how men declares himself willing to lend his wife money here too as well until his death hell inherit half his fortune. Just bought herself a large house continues to wait for how much return he shows up on the day oswalds will is read out in the final scene all the troops and disappointments come to light. Or have done i think if you asked and talk for. Just one day before the end of filming before the famous last scene he had the idea of having the same amount commentary of the one nine hundred fifty four germany hungry soccer game playing in the background see maman from spokeswoman topher nonsupport he realized a couple of days beforehand that he wanted that does my imports my talk before her british clock of yours and those of us mom he changed the final scene of course in fact he said he would shoot it differently because of the honest in what was. Knowledge but what i think by now when i was lucky. Thats right now because its night very good stuff that i got out of the survivor ive got that outfit are trying funneling its always obvious how you got that its. Not just i was a house or bend and pay scale itself but she turns into an excited young girl shes constantly changing outfits stupidity to play all its twitter every day and. Shes all over the place because she senses the moment of truth has come to my mother the very day that when she will find out that the love she put on this high pedestal cannot be real. In a way only so im going to ask this is how were going to get my son was in carried out by a nighttime cloister you know unsettling you know not knowing whos in india i dont see how this mustnt of silcox find him on my account and money on them you know im fine get these. For you i think i should hire you to. Come on home not after i know him from the to delete the sign and found me is what you call me and. Mia. Then surprises lead when i need leap in on me when two people love each other and one person loves the other more for them for then the person who loves more has lost right from the start. Yeah i mean first off thats a leading motif fassbinder explores in almost all of his films this is this exploitation of emotions. And i found that yes that was the right. Time i think to talk. All with us to and so i think the decision was made very late for this film to end with an explosion or to its what he wanted because as a result reached on he returned to the beginning and said this is the end gets work and now something new will be good its. Just does this to us and on his finger trust most of the others how it developed in his head of the crew and so he decided it should and how it started or pervious under find out why stuff like that just. Was. So much love that there was no clear. Right out of him and i let him back. And you know fate forces suck the two events or processes help germany free itself from its history even more the economic miracle with a strong german currency and the victory in the soccer world cup that made germany big again the most you i mentioned. And. Accept that. Germany was accepted by the world again because it had won in band going to unfairly by the way because hungary was the better team. Seems to say dear it was a big success for germany even though several players like the volatile. Others were former nazis but that didnt matter and he said he. Got there and then sure the good news from c it was a victory for germany over communism that was the cold war and when the country had got back on its feet thats what it was about. To come you say fall. In spring nine hundred Seventy Eight fassbender completed the final editing of the marriage of malleable and then travel to the Film Festival in cannes where his earlier film despair with dirk bogarde him and their family all was playing in the official competition fassbinder used the opportunity for an internal prescreening of the marriage of money about. Then he. We had a private showing all the german journalists were there and they gave us a standing ovation at the end. Of us as a sentry though to show no list of under the with the Standing Ovations didnt exist in germany at the time as it was a special honor especially that the whole press was saying that this was one of the most important german films ever so this is im good you were to. I think that was good for him to hope this does have to be covered should see i could get on before the film was released in a cinema as an unprecedented Marketing Campaign kicked off the weekly magazine down serialized the book adaptation of the film so when the marriage of my opened in german cinemas on the twenty third of march nine hundred seventy nine the storyline was already known. The entire film team won silver barrel boards at the bell in our Film Festival but it didnt win the oscar for best Foreign Language film that went to his friend focus learned off with the tin drum the marriage of maria brown became one of the key films of german postwar cinema and it was fast and does great a success one daily paper wrote the marriage of movie about is the film that brought people back to the cinema. City subversive excessive feel secure is thing about this film is that there are so many people who have a positive image of money are blown and they push everything that doesnt fit that narrative out of their minds he saw it as spirit a sick family that he to zhawar the they use this woman as a role model who just takes she knows how to reach our goals and make miracles happen yeah. After name edict. But they ignore her dont side. To this day people particularly women come to me and say you dont know how much you influenced my life with money are blown. Circus was a victim a spirit i levy i think said. In one thousand nine hundred two fassbender finally received the golden back after his film the monica farce. Filming for kill file started right afterwards it was based on a novel by genre name and shooting was confined to the studio. He always said he would die young some people who dont die young say that but he said it all the time as a botched gun owner. He was a candle burning at both ends and. Died but he said it was true likely he made me lead deal we said love is colder than death and cinema is warmer than life life thing i meant making films to be seen in the. Last spender died of a Drug Overdose on the tenth of june one thousand nine hundred two while killfile was being edited he was thirty seven the constant cocktail of alcohol and cocaine and his relentless work where the proved too much for him. The scale of his work is impressive in a fifteen year career he had made forty films and as many plays fast and like to say about malleable when you come so far theres no going back anymore that was how it was for him. Even if i think he was more like my own than i was. In some ways. Shiploads. Climate change. Waste. Pollution says.
