Movie Review: habernera
Summary: 5 Stars
This german classic is one of the few that are officially been released in the usa , on dvd ntsc,that focuses on the hollywood side of the third reich.Most of the third reich film classics that are distributed in the usa are mostly the negative propaganda type only. Conterversy sells a fast buck, The hollywood side of goebels isn't important cause it's no different than american film. So this side of the third reich cinema is sold less in usa cause it would make a dollar in the long run.Very few ,except like me , know Zarah leander in the U. S. A, Kineo on video has distributed this classic not to promote Zarah but to promote Douglas Sirk only, who direct it. The plot, Astree is with her stuffy aunt in Puerto Rico for a vacation. She meets Don Pedro De Avila. She sees him as a escapes from her mean aunt. She ends up marrying him. Years after bliss they both hate each other . She wants to go back home. There's an epidemic.Don controls the whole island and denies it.A doctor comes from sweden ,played by Karl Martel who was in a later Zarah Leander pic Damals and her Austrian hit Premiere , whome was a friend to Alstree. With help of Dr Goemez they find a cure. But don tries to stop it . This is a good movie. The only Zarah flick on dvd thats been relased in the usa on ntsc. the other Zarah are only in unrestored vhs prints in usa at other websites like German video language center although german video dot net has a good zarah leander vhs and dvd if you request it , Song of the dessert 1939
