A great example of cinematic
26 August 2007
A great film which I love to see over and over again. It trumps with great actors, a nice scenery and beautiful songs.

Some may think them to be out of date but if you give this film a chance - by not expecting a film where violence and sex scenes alternate, but good, solid acting and great songs - you won't be disappointed. Of course, it is slight fare but it doesn't pretend otherwise and provides good entertainment.

It is always nice to see films with Peter Alexander, Waltraut Haas and Gunter Philipp (etc); the quality in acting is great. One can't help but like these actors and believe what the stories they're 'telling'.

Personally, I can't resist the voice of Peter Alexander and love his songs.

Great movie
22 August 2007
A very good film. The humor may only be understandable for people who are familiar with this kind of film and may be lost on others but it is an entertaining movie with excellent actors. Personally, I laughed a lot during watching this film.

Its plot is inspired by a famous operetta of the same title. The story itself is harmless and contains no violence whatsoever; for me it was nice to watch it because I liked the songs very much and admire the talent of the actors. It's always nice to watch a film where you can recognize and marvel at the scenery. It's a very special feeling to see people acting in an environment one knows only of books and paintings, and believing their role.
