i be terribly sorry and i know that faßbinder still be call one of the great director in post war germany and that most of his film be consider master piece and but when i see lili marleen today and in 2004 and i wonder what everyone be up and away about this movie . the acting be simply terrible hanna schygulla be all the smile like an idiot . and the changings between nazi glamour and battlefield be ridiculous and the whole film look a if it be make within two day in an attic . probably it be exactly that way and many people seem to take this for real art and but for me this movie be simply bad and cheap . compare this to viscontis la caduta degli dei and tell me again that lili marleen be a good movie .
