    Re: Films & TV: Russian & Non - Q&As/Reviews/Links all in he

    For anyone interested in (film) history and/or musicals, I highly recommend a curious little movie called Die Frau meiner Träume (Girl of my Dreams; Девушка моей мечты). I was just rewatching it yet again and it's a really interesting film. It's made by UFA (Germany's main film studio) in 1944 starring Marika Rökk, a popular film star of the Nazy Germany. This movie was part of the war spoils taken by the Soviet troops (they took many films) and was screened throughout the Soviet Union as a "trophy film". It became incredibly popular.

    Nazi propaganda relied on completely different methods and assumptions than Soviet propaganda -- it was more psychological and relied on glamour, escapism, and eroticism. The life of this Aryan fantasy in the Soviet Union has always fascinated me. It's also a great musical for a fan of musicals.

    Available in Russian dubbing on selected websites But avoid the ones where they dubbed over the songs with some woman translating the lyrics in a very bored voice. OMG. :fool"

    Yes that's the one to avoid. Someone speaking over Marika Rökk's singing! Travesty!

    In der Nacht ist der Mensch nicht gern' alleine,
    Denn die Liebe im hellen Mondenscheine,
    Ist das schönste, sie wissen was ich meine,
    Einesteils und andrerseits und außerdem.
    Denn der Mensch braucht ein kleines bißchen Liebe,
    Grade sie ist im großen Weltgetriebe
    Für das Herz wohl das schönste aller Triebe,
    Einesteils und andrerseits und außerdem.

    Как там говорил Копелян? "Штирлиц смотрел её уже в шестой раз, он ненавидел эту картину" ?
    Please, correct my mistakes, except for the cases I misspell something on purpose!

    Re: Films & TV: Russian & Non - Q&As/Reviews/Links all in he

    By the way, I've made a little search in the net about this movie ("Die Frau meiner Träume" with Marika Rökk) and have found an interesting fact about this film and it's appearance in the "17 moments of spring". First, Shtirlitz couldn't watch this film at a Third Reich cinema because it's was made in the late 1944 and just wasn't snown in nazi Geramny before it's defeat. It was shown at Soviet cinema theaters as a trophy movie in 1945. And secondly, when the "17 momets of spring" was colorized lately, in the episode when Shtirlitz watch the "Die Frau meiner Träume" the picture on screen remains black and white although the original movie ("Frau" of course) was made in color(!).
    Please, correct my mistakes, except for the cases I misspell something on purpose!

    There are many historical inaccuracies in the series, so the 1st doesn't surprise me.
    But the second is pretty bad. I also looked up the colorized version, after someone told me that this series was colorized (HOW HORRIBLE!). I thought it looked very very bad. I didn't watch that particular scene that you describe, Basil, but I read about it. Sounds funny.

    BTW in what episode is Stirlitz at the cinema? I'd like to see this colorized scene and I don't remember the details of the plot very well.

    Haha... Well, when I watched "Stirlitz" I saw a "Konsum" shop (East German [DDR] food shop). There was something else as well which was very typical East Germany which I have forgotten now. But Konsum is easy to remember for me; we have shops called that in Sweden too, and I know that they started AFTER the war, so they could not by any logic appear during the period when Stirlitz is in Germany...

    (But I am totally hopeless - I always ruin the viewing experience for myself by getting distracted by things like that in films! People always get fed up with me because I mention it when I watching films with others)

    And on a footnoote, I absolutely can't get the subtitles to work with the colour version of Stirlitz... Don't know if they've cut or added scenes or something, but it just doesn't work... It only works with the b/w version... Did anyone have the same problem? I really need the subs, the conversation in that series is too complicated for me to understand without subs right now.

    And I have never heard of Marika Rökk!

    Originally I remember myself noticing this mistake when I watched the series for the first time (I was about 12 back then):

    When Kate is boarding the train in Switzerland(!) there is a typical lettering on the coach in Russian "мест [number]", it is written on every coach of Russian passenger trains even now and means how many places for passengers there.
    Please, correct my mistakes, except for the cases I misspell something on purpose!

    До этого не смотрела. Очень смешно. Спасибо за ссылку

    "Но в следующий раз, прежде чем что-то красить, потренеруйтесь, для начала, на кошках"

    Вспомнилась сцена в фильме "Стиляги", в которой Фрэд красит собаку в ванне, а отец говорит ему, перестань издеваться над животным. И над культовыми сериалами издеваться не надо.

    New film topic! Long ago, when most of you were not even a thought about in your parent's minds... there was a movie called The Gumball Rally. This movie came out the same year as the first Cannonball movie. These movies are about car races from one coast of the U.S. to the other.

    I remember this film from my youth (yup, I am that old) and there is ONE very good line from it (well maybe more) that if you are of my generation, you STILL know it and upon occasion will say it when you are in the car.

    First rule of Italian driving! Say it with me people!!!

    I bring this all up because of a story in the news this week:

    I wish they could stlll apply that rule now,then I could get my licence there. Unfortunately Italy is subject to EUs driving test regulations.

    The only people who drive like that are those who got their licences BEFORE the new tests were introduced. Everyone else drives like this:

    Some British instruction videos and "games" for driving.
    Note the irritating pretentious language used!!!

    As I vaguely recollect it was because his undercover contact hasn't arrived and Shtirlitz was worried.

    I think Sun Valley Serenade was beating Die Frau meiner Träume in popularity.
