I don't know why the other commentator, who was German, thought Magna Shnieders acting was bad. She took ballet and singing lessons. She was even a hit in the fifties too.But she decided to focus on her daughters career development. I had order this on VHS From, German video.net, and too my amazing surprise I got the DVD version instead and that's what I really wanted.This is a Willy Fritz vehicle. One of his last films to play a leading role. He was older and would end up as a support character. This is a musical. A melodrama with some musical numbers.If they had a bigger budget they could of included Marika Rokk and Zarah Leander Heinz Ruhmannn and Hans
Alber as a guest appearance in a musical numbers but that would of been too expensive and too distracting. This is one of Willy Fritzes'last lead Vehicle.He plays a struggling singer,in a version of Germany without war and Hitler, Willy Forester.Magna plays Theresa. She makes a living creating womens clothes.Although I can't determine whether he is a relative or friend,Paul Klinger plays Peter Schroeder. He might be the brother of her married sister.Well,he works as a singer at a café. He then sings to a waitress the title song,that he sang too Magna.She shows up and their is a misunderstanding she get's jealous. Later that night ,at home , they have a fight about it. He leave's and then she regrets it.But When Willy comes back and sees Klinger vehicle at the apartment, which indicates he may not be a relative but a close friend.That's it, He becomes a successful singer as Bill Berry.An international singer. He even sings in English.Wile at home already pregnant with Evchen,in a fictitious version of Germany in 1938,she raises her up all those years as he become internationally famous. Then all of a sudden he decides to go back and see Magna. There's no hint if they got a divorce or not .She finally tells her daughter who's a fan of bill Berry that he's her father but not to tell him that she knows it. At first she's excited about being a daughter of a world famous singer and keeps her mouth shut. But all of a sudden she starts to wonder why he had abandon them. She accidentally blurts it out unintentionally when she visits him. He then explained what the situation was. there's a lack of continuity scene where Magda and fritz are taking a ferry looking at the German country side , I thought it was Austria. It looked like they were still in love with each other, then the scene jumps where all of a sudden she already home but, he has a secretary,Ellen, played by Hertha Fieller in her first appearance in a color film but not her best role . He seems to be interested in her too. In between this story it becomes a musical. In the numbers you see, a popular dance team at the time. Then Romy her self does a song number on the stage with Willy. Whether both of their voices were dubbed or that was their real voice is a question mark. The print is great. Although it was advertised as being processed as GEVA color. It's probably AGFA
color process at the GEVA plant.Romy ends up upstaging every one. Corrections as of 9th /13th /09. Peter was not a relative and was in love with Theresa. They end up together. Ellen the secretary has fallen in love with her boss Willy. She takes off when he doesn't notice her, Show back up unexpectedly. they end up together too
