Maybe it's an idea to watch the film without wine goggles, since I think this movie shows that MD should not only be credited to Josef van Sternberg. But Josef von Sternberg said himself that he didn't give MD anything that she not already had herself (as you can see in the silent films from 1929), he only highlited them.<br /><br />I always assumed that MissLaDiva is a lady... excuse me! I thought about contributing and maybe I would like to (have some ideas). Especially when I have time on my hands (like the last few day) I enjoy reading and writing a little, perhaps I'll get better in putting something on paper. I'm always stronger in conversations and immediate interacting, on paper I'm the rambling kind of type...<br /><br />PS I thought Marlene wasn't exactly crazy about "An Evening With Marlene Dietrich" (just teasing ;))<br />karinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834131700403691808.post-11767250618401896892012-09-08T23:17:16.097-07:002012-09-08T23:17:16.097-07:00I get so caught up in the uncommon knowledge that ...I get so caught up in the uncommon knowledge that I often miss what pops up in the likeliest of places.;) Actually, I saw "Die Frau, nach der man sich sehnt" at the 2011 San Francisco Film Festival but probably didn't write much if anything about it here. I wouldn't have had anything to say anyway--I was wearing some thick wine goggles during that screening. You're giving me great ideas for future blog posts, but I must admit that I'm having writer's block at the moment. If you want to contribute, I think your English is great, and your thoughts will interest readers. I've given this blog the <em>An Evening With Marlene Dietrich</em> color treatment, but it still lacks a true lady's touch.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04970797639620201166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834131700403691808.post-91818327011250962922012-09-08T14:18:31.133-07:002012-09-08T14:18:31.133-07:00You're welcome!

If you feel like doing another silent, perhaps "Ich küsse Ihre Hand, Madame" (1929) might be something.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5bMVVEmnD0karinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834131700403691808.post-87942552008338714502012-05-07T09:13:26.580-07:002012-05-07T09:13:26.580-07:00Paul, I got sick of writing death-posts, but I saw...Paul, I got sick of writing death-posts, but I saw the news, too. I haven't read that Higham bio in years and don't have it, but I'll take a look at it at work and see whether I can say anything interesting. Honestly, I think a Dietrich fan who was around when it came out would have more valuable insight.Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04970797639620201166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834131700403691808.post-67560914370235496422012-05-07T00:50:47.784-07:002012-05-07T00:50:47.784-07:00Seven Sinners and Stage Fright are the films I cou...Seven Sinners and Stage Fright are the films I could watch over and over again.I just read that Dietrich biographer Charles Higham has died.PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834131700403691808.post-13585532838253583972012-05-04T18:09:11.652-07:002012-05-04T18:09:11.652-07:00Thanks, and congrats on becoming a CMBA member.
