( spoiler in this ) rosenstraße be a movie about heroic woman in german nazi time . but it be way too long and it be not touching and sometimes even bore . there be too many clichés and not enough good acting . the storytelling ( storyline ) be bad . like in james cameron´s titanic an old woman remember event of her live . good and now we have get a point of view . than there be another woman introduce who do the same . confusing be that they both be recall event of life of other people . come on . this be a lack of knowledge of basic story tell . how can riemann know about the fate of the little girl´s mother and her interrogation for example . the scene be show in the wrong order and you rarely know when it take place . for example the scene when riemann be propose to fabian . when do that happen . the scene look like it be set in the twenty . riemann´s character be of course a talented pianist and well and she be even a baroness . wow . her brother come back from the eastern front and he have receive a ritterkreuz which he be show in some scene . so he be a war hero and still a fine man who preserve his conscience . and he gain knowledge of massacre commit by german . he even make some photograph . and so it go and cliché after cliché be pile up and this be why the movie do not work . basically von trotta make a chick flick out of something what could have be a decent movie . and in the end it´s all very simple . riemann find a way to get goebbels into bed and ta da . everyone be free . which be not a historical fact but pure imagination despite the true story claim at the beginning . like sas it be vaguely base on a true event . it be sad but true and this be the typical german movie these day . it be bad . macaulay j. connor .
