TOSCA  (1941)  * with switchable English subtitles *

Rossano Brazzi is perfectly cast as the strikingly handsome painter and revolutionary collaborator Mario Cavaradosssi. Michel Simon steals the show whenever he is on screen, as nefarious police chief Baron Scarpia, who is out to apprehend all opponents to Papal rule in this story set in early 19th-century Rome.

Some of his clients belong to the most important houses in Madrid, so it is not surprising, that he eventually ends up being noticed by the king, Charles IV. Goya feels a passionate love for Duchess Alba, but, at the same time, just as passionately despises the decadent aristocrat in her. He believes in the rule of both the king and the Church and enjoys his position at the royal court. His colleague and friend Esteve points out to him the contradictions of his closed world and leads him to the simple peasants of his country. In a tavern in Madrid, he meets the singer Maria Rosario. She is eventually condemned by a court of the inquisition. Goya is deeply moved by the song the woman is forced to regurgitate at her trial, as proof of her guilt. The further he digs into how the people of his country live, which provides the motifs for his paintings, the greater his pain becomes for the conditions they have to live in.

Seine Auftraggeber stammen aus den bedeutendsten Häusern Madrids und so gelangt er allmählich an den Königshof Karls IV.

Er glaubt an den König und die Kirche, genießt seine Stellung bei Hofe. Sein Mitarbeiter und Freund Esteve zeigt ihm die Widersprüchlichkeit dieser abgeschlossenen Welt und führt ihn zu den einfachen Leuten des Landes. In einer Madrider Taverne begegnet er der Sängerin Maria Rosario; später muss er miterleben, wie sie von der Inquisition verurteilt wird. Von dem Lied, das Maria als Beweis ihrer Schuld vortragen muss, ist er tief erschüttert. Je weiter er in das Leben des Volkes eindringt, daraus Motive für seine Kunst schöpft, desto größer wird seine innere Pein angesichts der Zustände im Land.

He announces in front of his wife and children, that he will not eat until his dream comes true. His worried wife steals a turkey and gives it to Macario before he heads off to the mountains to work. However, just as Macario prepares to eat the turkey, three figures appear. The first is the Devil in the guise of a fine gentleman, who tempts Macario in order to get a piece of the turkey. The second is God in the guise of an old man. Macario refuses to share the turkey with either, since he believes that they both have the means necessary to get themselves what they want. When a third figure —a peasant like himself— appears, he gladly shares the turkey with this man. The third man is none other than Death itself. Death is unsure why Macario shared his turkey with him and not with the Devil and God. Macario responds, "Whenever you appear, there is no time for anything else." Macario hoped to forestall what he assumed to be his imminent death by gaining the time it would take for him and Death to eat. Death is amused and as compensation, calls Macario his "friend" and gives him miraculous water that will heal any disease. If Death appears at the feet of a sick person, they can be healed with the water - but if Death appears by the person's head, he or she is condemned to die.

Aelita also known as Aelita: Queen of Mars, is a silent film directed by Sovietfilmmaker Yakov Protazanov made on Mezhrabpom-Rus film studio and released in 1924.  It was based on Alexei Tolstoy's novel of the same name. Mikhail Zharov and Igor Ilyinsky were cast in leading roles. Though the main focus of the story is the daily lives of a small group of people living in the post-Civil War Soviet Union, the enduring importance of the film comes from its early science fiction elements.  It primarily tells of a young man, Los, traveling to Mars in a rocket ship, where he leads a popular uprising against the ruling group of Elders, with the support of Queen Aelita who has fallen in love with him after watching him through a telescope. Probably the first full-length movie about space travel, the most notable part of the film remains its remarkable constructivist Martian sets and costumes designed by Aleksandra Ekster.  Their influence can be seen in a number of later films, including the Flash Gordon serials and probably Fritz Lang's Metropolis. Parts of the plot were also loosely adapted for the 1951 film Flight to Mars.

Heimatfilm von und mit Luis Trenker, der als Auswanderer der ihn einengenden Bergwelt entfliehen will und in New York feststellen muss, dass das Leben dort noch viel härter und unmenschlicher ist. Mit beeindruckenden Bildern lebt der Film vom Kontrast zwischen den Dolomiten und der Großstadt, deren Hochhäuser ihrerseits wie Berge in Szene gesetzt sind. Der Film endet mit einem Loblied auf die dörfliche Gemeinschaft, bei deren gemeinsamer Sonnwendfeier der ernüchterte Heimkehrer zu seiner vorübergehend verschmähten Dorfliebe zurückfindet.

 

In this Heimatfilm, Luis Trenker plays a Bavarian wishing to flee the constrictive and provincial life of his Bavarian mountain village.  He ends up fleeing to New York in the middle of the Great Depression and discovers city life to be brutal and inhuman. The contrast between the Alps and the big city is shown in the film's impressive scenes; especially those of the skyscrapers of Manhattan, which are filmed as if they were mountains of a different kind.  The film ends as a paean to the village community. The disillusioned émigré returns to his mountain village during a solstice festival and finds his way back to the woman he left behind.

Nach dem Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs kehrt Richard Hellwerth aus japanischer Gefangenschaft in seine Heimat nach Elberfeld zurück. Was ihn erwartet ist erschütternd. Seine Eltern sind tot, das Haus in dem er aufwuchs, halb vermietet an den Spekulanten Eickhoff, die Firma steht kurz vor dem Ruin. Da erzählt ihm Werkmeister Schwafels von dem Erfinder Breuer, der immer noch in einem Raum der Fabrik besessen experimentiert. Als Hellwerth vor ihm steht, bricht dieser halb verhungert zusammen. Der junge Chef pflegt ihn gesund, und die beiden schließen einen Pakt. Als erstes verkauft Hellwerth sein Haus an Eickhoff, denn mit diesem Kapital können sie neu beginnen. Dank Breuers Vorarbeit entsteht ein neuer Werkstoff: die Kunstseide.

 

After the end of the First World War, Richard Hellwarth returns to Elberfeld in his homeland back from imprisonment at the hands of the Japanese.  What he sees upon his return shakes him to the core:  his parents are dead; the house in which he grew up has been 50% rented out to a speculator named Eickhoff; and the family business is one foot in the grave.  He is told about the discoverer Breuer, who is still occupying a room in the factory and continues to experiment.  When Hellwerth re-introduces himself to the scientist, Breuer collapses from hunger.  The young boss cares for him and brings him back to health ... and they make a pact:  First, Hellwerth will sell his house to Eickhoff; then, the capital from the sale will be used to make a new beginning.  And thanks to Breuer's diligence, a new product is developed:  artificial silk.

Damit sie sich nach seinem Tod gegen Mitgiftjäger zur Wehr setzen kann, ließ der alte General d'Estroux seine Enkelin Madelone im Fechten, Reiten, Fluchen und Trinken ausbilden. Es war eine weise Vorausplanung, denn kaum hat der General das Zeitliche gesegnet, versucht ihr Vormund Cesaire, sie gegen eine Provision mit dem unsympathischen Präfekten Barberousse zu verkuppeln. Damit Madelone sich zur Ehe bereit erklärt, zeigt Cesaire ihr ein Foto von Barberousses attraktivem Vetter Fernand de Villeneuve. Der Trick funktioniert, Madelone willigt ein. Kurz vor der Trauung durchschaut sie den Schwindel, schwingt sich auf ein Pferd und flieht. Als Mann verkleidet, kehrt sie in einer Waldschänke ein und lernt dort den "echten" Fernand kennen. Doch Madelone gibt sich nicht zu erkennen, sondern verbringt eine feuchtfröhliche Nacht "unter Männern" mit Fernand und seinen Freunden.   Als Madelone tags darauf durch einen dummen Zufall enttarnt und verhaftet wird, könnte nur Barberousse für ihre Freilassung sorgen. Der stellt jedoch die Bedingung, dass Madelone für einen Abend bei einem Fest seine Frau spielt. Sie erklärt sich einverstanden, doch als Barberousse sie mit Fernand bei einem innigen Kuss überrascht, kommt es erneut zu Turbulenzen, bevor die Liebenden sich endgültig in die Arme schließen können.

 

This film is a lost musical parody treasure that could bear to be rediscovered. Operetta meets swing, and the conventions of cross-dressing and sexual gender confusion gets the Comedia della arte treatment. Lilian Harvey plays a young heiress in long-ago France (the costumes are Empire and Regency) named Madelon, whose grandfather brings her up as one would a young man, so that she can make it alone and rebuff all who would chase her for fortune. Upon the grandfather's death, she is fooled by her guardian into a betrothal with a fat prefect when she is deceptively shown a picture of his young and good-looking rogue cousin. Before the wedding can take place, Madelon discovers the ruse and escapes in the disguise of a page boy. On the road, she coincidentally meets the attractive young cousin and his best friend, who have just left the wedding celebration. The three become comrades after a scuffle with some ruffians and then set off on many adventures, including a visit to a brothel, during all of which the two men are under the impression that Madelon is a young man. After some problem with the law, they are all brought into court where all must be resolved.

Im Zirkus Sarrasani kann der Artist Bobby Hansen den Dompteur Carlos gerade noch vor dem wildgewordenen Tiger Sultan retten. Da der schwer verletzte Carlos ins Krankenhaus muss, soll Bobby die Raubtierdressur übernehmen. Als Ersatz für seine Wild-West-Nummer engagiert der Zirkus die Hochseilartistin Fedora, die Ehefrau Bobbys, von der er jedoch seit einigen Jahren getrennt lebt. Aber als er Fedoras neuen spektakulären Trapezakt sieht, erwacht in ihm wieder die alte Leidenschaft. Bobbys alte Verehrerin Maja de Passy reagiert mit Eifersucht auf Fedoras Rückkehr, noch dazu als ihr Bobby erklärt, dass er seine Frau zurückgewinnen will. Zuvor muss er jedoch eine weitere Katastrophe verhindern, nachdem ein Schimpanse während der Vorstellung die Raubtierkäfige geöffnet hat. Bobby gelingt es, die Tiger wieder einzufangen. Die Aufregung hat ihn und Fedora wieder vereint, doch das gemeinsame Glück findet ein jähes Ende.

 

In Circus Sarrasani, the artist Bobby Hansen is able to save the animal trainer Carlos from a tiger on the rampage (wait:  isn't this the plot to Konigstiger?!?).  Since Carlos was sent to the hospital by the famous tiger-turned-author, Claude Balls, Bobby gets to play animal trainer  (big step up from usher, huh?).  As a replacement in the Wild West Number (what happened to the original performer?), the circus puts the highwire artist Fedora in the act (tiger bait).  The artist is Bobby's wife, but no one knows they've been living apart for years (definitely tiger bait).  When Fedora tries out a new spectacular trapeze act, some perverse attraction awakens in Bobby and he falls for her once more. Bobby's old admirer, Maja de Passy, reacts with jealousy when she sees Fedora in the ring (tiger licks lips), and becomes positively creepy after Bobby tells her (sadistically), that he wants to win back his soon-to-be tiger-eaten wife.  Before reconciliation, however, comes retribution, as a chimpanzee, obviously jealous that Fedora likes Bobby and not him, opens the cage of another hungry tiger.  Bobby succeeds in getting the tiger back in his cage; the event strangely turns on both Bobby and Fedora, who get back together; but the apparently happy ending has some more bad luck coming to it.

 

 

  

https://rarefilmsandmore.com/Media/Thumbs/0001/0001007-sergeant-berry-1938.jpgSERGEANT BERRY  (1938)

 

Für die populäre Kriminal-Kolportage von Herbert Selpin liefert Hans Albers in der Titelrolle seine bewährte Interpretation eines furchtlosen Draufgängers:  Als US-Polizist Berry verschlägt es ihn von Chicago nach Mexico, wo er – getarnt als Ingenieur – gegen Drogenschmuggler ermitteln soll. Während Berry die Handlanger des Hauptverdächtigen Madison beschattet, erfährt er zufällig von einem Mordkomplott gegen den Großgrundbesitzer Don Antonio. Dessen zukünftiger Schwiegersohn Don José ist ebenfalls ein Komplize Madisons, doch allein Antonios Tochter Ramona glaubt Berrys Warnungen. Nachdem er mehreren Anschlägen und einer von Madison eingefädelten Verurteilung zum Tode knapp entgangen ist, flieht Berry gemeinsam mit Ramona in Richtung amerikanische Grenze, wo es zum Showdown mit Madisons Bande kommt.

 

Albers, as Sergeant Berry, the terror of the gangsters of Chicago, patrols urban streets, where blacks play jazz, shoots it out with criminals and leads a night club raid.  So impressive is our genial hero, that he is sent off to catch dope smugglers in Mexico - an elaborate studio built village with cacti in the desert and a two storey hotel for the camera to track through.  Hans gets to juggle a knife, skinny dip, shoot the Mexican heavy in the rump and start the cantina dance.  He wins the villain's fiancée, even if our hero's grey haired mum, second billed von Bukovics, flies in, which might have spooked most potential romances.  Good pacing and a breezy performance by our hero to go with this accomplished, smallish scale production.
