Bagdad Cafe [1988]

starring: CCH Pounder, Marianne Sägebrecht, Jack Palance
directed by: Percy Adlon

Release Date May 11, 2002
I bought this because of the Amazon 5star rating. On the upside it's quirky. The back cover describes it as a comedy - it has strong elements of German humour with conceptual developments of jokes: it does have some good jokes and it is amusing, but I doubt many English people would think it a comedy.
The pace quickens after the first half hour from comatose to slow, if you can stay with it that long.
It is goppingly sentimental, and the nearer you are to the end of the film, the nearer you should keep the bucket.
Overall rating - "Harmless"

Bagdad Cafe [1988]

starring: Marianne Sagebrecht, C.C.H. Pounder, Jack Palance, Monica Calhoun
directed by: Percy Adlon

Release Date May 27, 2002
Baghdad Café gathered top awards at the Rio Festival in 1988 and they were well deserved. Magic, warmth and charm are brought to a little hotel out in the middle of nowhere by a somewhat bulky Bavarian housewife. Despite her size, her femininity comes through in her slippers: delicate, soft and sensual, they symbolize her womanhood and help make those around her fall in love with her. She even inspires an artist to paint her in the style of Botticelli. Large, voluptuous people can rest assured that size need not detract from their deep spiritual essence. It's a very warm, very human movie.

Salmonberries [1993] (REGION 1) (NTSC)

starring: Rosel Zech, k.d. lang, Oscar Kawagley, Eugene Omiak, Wayne Waterman
directed by: Percy Adlon

Release Date March 19, 2002
Even though the movie itself was kind of hard to digest, performance by K.D. Lang was very good. Considering she hasn't had any acting experience prior to making this film, one cannot expect an Oscar-winning performance. Maybe she'll do better in future films? Personally I like her music very much, but who knows? If given a chance she might develop her acting skills. As far as I know this is her one and only attempt at acting.

Rosalie Goes Shopping [1990]

starring: Marianne Sägebrecht, Brad Davis, Judge Reinhold, Erika Blumberger, Willy Harlander
directed by: Percy Adlon

Release Date March 11, 1991
I saw this film on television and was mesmerised. Marianne Sagebrecht is as wonderful in this as in Bagdad Café. The film should be on everyone's list of must-have's, as a cult film; it's moving, funny and satirical with an amazing story line which starts off to make you groan (a woman who spends her life in bed, buying useless things from television shopping programmes) and ends up... well, watch it and be surprised! It's pure joy.
