Hans Hirschmüller and Irm Hermann in The Merchant of Four Seasons (Rainer Werner Fassbinder, 1972) Cast: Hans Hirschmüller, Irm Hermann, Hanna Schygulla, Klaus Löwitsch, Karl Scheydt, Andrea Schober, Gusti Kreissl, Ingrid Caven, Kurt Raab, Heidi Simon.  Screenplay: Rainer Werner Fassbinder. Cinematography: Dietrich Lohmann. Production design: Kurt Raab Schlubby little (much is made of how much shorter he is than his wife) Hans Epp (Hans Hirschmüller) joined the Foreign Legion after washing out of the Munich police force for receiving a blowjob from a prostitute he had arrested, and now sells fruit from a pushcart he trundles through the courtyards of apartment houses. He is the object of scorn from his family because he never found a white-collar job, unlike his upwardly mobile brother-in-law and his intellectual sister Anna (Hanna Schygulla). His wife, Irmgard  (Irm Hermann), assists him in the fruit-selling business, working from a street stall, but it's clear that their marriage is troubled -- she spies on him at work, counting the minutes that he takes to deliver a bagful of pears to the woman he once proposed to. (She turned him down.) Even his mother (Gusti Kreissl) doesn't love him: When he returns from the Foreign Legion and tells her that the friend who enlisted with him was killed, she retorts, "The good die young, but you come back." When he suffers a heart attack, Irmgard cheats on him while he's in the hospital, and then later lets him hire the man she slept with to take over the heavy-lifting part of the job. Despite all that's stacked against him, Hans manages to make a go as a merchant, but just as his family begins to praise him instead of dumping on him, he sinks into a deep depression and winds up drinking himself to death. If this all sounds terribly heavy-handed, it's lifted out of the suds in precisely the way Douglas Sirk made his films rise about their soap-operatic plots with sharp-eyed direction, flashes of wit, and sly social comment. The comparison to Sirk is an obvious one: Rainer Werner Fassbinder's breakthrough film was inspired by his study of the Hollywood master, whom he deliberately set out to imitate and, I think, managed to excel, if only because he wasn't handicapped by the money-making concerns and censorship of American film. There are some delicious performances, not only from Hirschmüller as the sad-sack Hans and Hermann as his sly helpmeet, but also from Schygulla as the somewhat sympathetic Anna. And the film ends with one of the most chilling exchanges in any Fassbinder film, as Irmgard and Harry (Klaus Löwitsch), Hans's old Legionnaire buddy who has gone to work for him, drive away from the funeral and she proposes a business-like marriage to him. His terse reply, "Okay," perfectly sums up the emotionless, mercantile tone that pervades the film.

Gesang der toten Dinge gives Ivo a chance to charm/be charmed by an older woman, one of the best parts of his character.

Who could resist Irm Hermann?? Other than Franz of course? It’s a smaller role but she leans much further into the witchiness in Wofür es sich zu Leben lohnt. You get Hanna Schygulla in that, too! Worth it even if you’re not big on Konstanz.

These episodes without subtitles kill me. Is it Mosacke? Moosacke? Moosackel?

Maria-Empfängnis-Aktion, Hermann Nitsch, 1970, dir. by Ed and Irm Sommer

[bitter69uk]

Brigitte Mira. Irm Hermann. Ingrid Caven. Hanna Schygulla. Barbara Valentin. Rosel Zech. Barbara Sukowa. Christiane Maybach. In the 1970s turbulent New German Cinema visionary Rainer Werner Fassbinder worked with - and elicited career-best performances from - the crème de la crème of German actresses. Even in that illustrious company, Margit Carstensen (29 February 1940 – 1 June 2023) - who has died aged 83 - was exceptional. Fassbinder’s camera devoured the planes and hollows of Carstensen’s remarkable face, and she’s particularly spellbinding in The Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant (1972), Martha (1974) and especially Fear of Fear (1975), one of the definitive “women-having-a-breakdown” movies (see also: Monica Vitti in Antonioni’s Red Desert (1964)).
