Description
This is a region-free DVD+R without case or artwork.
In German with English subtitles. Also known as
Farewell
.
This is a good VHS transfer.
Abschied (Farewell)
represents the directorial debut of fledgling screenwriter
Robert Siodmak
. Co-written by
Emeric Pressburger
, the story concentrates on the various amours of boarding-house resident Hella (Brigitte Horney). After playing the field for several reels, she finally settles down with vacuum-cleaner salesman Peter Winkler (Aribert Mog). Costing a mere 60,000 marks, it is Siodmak's "avant-garde" directorial style, freely borrowed from several of the filmmakers whom he most admired, that carries the day. Though
Abschied
didn't make much of a dent at the box office, the reviews were good, encouraging producer Eric Pommer to keep young Robert Siodmak in the director's chair -- thereby launching a career that would endure well into the 1960s.
