This fílm tells the story of an austrian piano-maker family, beginning in the late 19th century and ending after World War II. It shows the fall of the austrian monarchy and the times of the two world wars included in the life of a woman (played by the - i think - greatest austrian actress paula wessely) and her family. I like the film because of the interesting story and because of all the great austrian actors. You really can admire the creme de la creme of austrian film- and theatre stars. For me this film is the last great austrian movie, because afterwards austrian cinema descended to harmless funny and childish comedies or cheap sex pics. It's a pity, because Der Engel mit der Posaune shows, how the austrian film could have been.
