The Third Man
Das Leben kann so schön sein
Rolf Hansen
Gerhard Bienert, Hedwig Bleibtreu
The young marriage of the insurance agent Hannes and his wife Nora is being worn down by financial difficulties and overcrowded living conditions. Hannes is unable to sell enough policies and life becomes ever worse for the two. Nora attempts to earn some extra money, but even that proves to be a burden on their relationship, not the least because her boss is hitting up on her. She's expecting Hannes' child, too, but he is starting to turn further and further away from her.

Das Lied ist aus
Géza von Bolváry
Liane Haid, Willi Forst
Das Lied ist Aus (The Song Is Ended) is a typical early-talkie German musical in every respect, save one. The story, concerning the lives and loves of show folk, ends unhappily -- and surprisingly so. The doleful denouement didn't seem to have much effect on the film's box-office appeal, since Das Lied ist Aus proved a major moneymaker.
The Song Is Over

E.W. Emo
Hans Moser, Elfriede Datzig

Wiener Mädeln
Willi Forst
Willi Forst, Dora Komar

Vienna Girls
Frauen sind keine Engel
Willi Forst
Marte Harell, Axel von Ambesser
Frauen sind keine Engel" was made on a moderate budget and has generally found not as much attention as that which has been rightfully accorded to his 'Viennese trilogy' made at about the same time. Please don't expect the outward splendour of some other Forst films, even though script, acting and direction leave nothing to be desired. However, like many of Forst's more important films this one not only provides great entertainment, but is also a thorough examination of the relation of fiction/art and reality.
