Marianne Sägebrecht was absolutely outstanding in Bagdad Cafe and Rosalie Goes Shopping. I have since tried to catch anything with her in it. Let me know if you liked or hated a movie I recommended. - .
I loved this film. It is a satire of the American way of debt. Rosalie juggles 37 credit cards and bill collectors. After she buys a computer for her daughter, Rosalie learns that when you owe a $100,000 its your problem but if you owe a $1,000,000 its the bank's problem. Then she goes international.
sleeper got little attention but the acting is outstanding. Check out cast: Richard Dreyfuss, Raul Julia, Sonia Braga, Jonathan Winters, Fernando Rey, Sammy Davis Jr., Michael Greene, Charo, Marianne Sägebrecht, Reinhard Kolldehoff
story of Chaja, a rebellious philosophy student stuggling to come of age. Her relationship with her parents, both concentration camp survivors, is strained and she finds herself unable to accept her Jewish identity. A family friend finds her a job as a nanny for a Hassidic family with 5 children. Marianne plays Chaja's mother.
John Malkovich plays a mentally slow man who loves children in early Nazi Germany. I think the mentally slow stands for morally slow. Outstanding part for Malkovich. Marianne plays Mrs. Netta
