Marika Rökk has a special association with color(ful) movies in Germany, having been the star of the very first Agfacolor feature, FRAUEN SIND DOCH BESSERE DIPLOMATEN (Women are Better Diplomats), which commenced shooting prior to the outbreak of war in 1939. Although Marika was ready to dazzle on the color screen, Agfacolor wasn't, and much of the movie underwent multiple reshoots as Agfacolor technology progressed. It finally reached audiences in the Fall of 1941, by which time many in Germany were perhaps more appreciative of such a bright color spectacle than they might have been two years earlier. An even more lavish Agfacolor musical vehicle for Rökk followed when times had grown bleaker still, with DIE FRAU MEINER TRÄUME (The Woman of My Dreams, 1944). Both those films were directed by Rökk's husband, Georg Jacoby, and the pair embarked on a string of post-war color musicals in West Germany, including BÜHNE FREI FÜR MARIKA (Stage Free for Marika, 1958), from which this crazy clip is taken. The lyrics during the opening two minutes of the clip are every bit as daffy as the visuals: I am the moon woman And as such I'm a one-off! The others who live up here Are just a load of neutrons! The Man in the Moon [she points], he's my father. My address is Humdrum Street on the dark side of the Moon. I'm so bored - oh, I'm so bored. This place is the pits and there's not even ONE man here for me! I'm so bored - oh, I'm so bored. Without even a girlfriend with whom to Chat about the latest lunar fashions! We ain't got cinema, nor TV, Nor rock'n'roll, nor jazz. I can't even go the hairdressers here --- So I just say 'Bonjour, tristesse!'* I'm so bored, so sing-u-lar-ly bored. I finally want to experience some life; and That's why I've started looking for a man! Yes, I finally want to experience some life; and That's why I've started looking for a man - ON EARTH! * = 'Hello, sadness', but also a topical reference to the newly released Otto Preminger movie of the same name Last Edited By: doctor kiss Feb 11 12 12:54 PM.

Incidentally, when Martin Kosleck-- pardon me-- Joseph Goebbels saw the awful & variable color for FRAUEN SIND DOCH BESSERE DIPLOMATEN, he said, "Brennst diese Schiesse!" ("Burn this shhhtttt!")

Off the subject, I noticed that in the upper left there is what appears to be a bug that has been blurred out. I have seen this type of thing before. The timer in the Japanese version of HALF HUMAN, for example. Is there software that can do this?

I don't know exactly why, but this thing make me feel like I did when I was really young, and watching Duck Dodgers cartoons. The moon men seem to be of the Chuck Jones style, and it works flawlessly with the whimsical background paintings. The quirky tune sells the whole thing with utter perfection. I've already watched this about 10 times and still am enjoying the heck out of it. Chris Want to hang out with the ultimate party animals ? Come see us at; http://www.hollywoodgorillamen.com/
