Quiz
Dora Komar's debut.

Blooper
Emilie Krall was in Vienna with her husband Franz Jauner in the 1870s, not in Germany, as suggested in the movie. Also at that time she was not performing anymore and was only singing for private parties. She wouldn't have signed a contract for a theater in Dresden.

Citazioni
Franz Jauner: At the theater you have to throw the money out of the window. Then it will come back through the door.

CHARMING AND MELANCHOLIC

It was in a 1963 interview that Willy Forst said that from 1938 onwards he made his most Austrian films. That is: he showed an Austria that had ceased to be, even as a fantasy.

Operette is a fine example. It has charm, tenderness and wit; it is galant and melancholic. Forst's directing is as always that of the light touch which gives the film a feeling of charm (though the influence of Karl Hartl is unclear to me). Of course Forst was helped by a very good script by his regular (co)writer Eggebrecht, that cleverly and plausibly romanticizes the lives of 3 main operetta composers.

It brought together 2 gentlemen of the German/Austrian cinema: Forst himself and Siegfried Breuer in main parts. The overall splendid cast includes Curd Jürgens who is almost unrecognizable. The music is played brilliantly by the Wiener Philharmoniker; the ballets and dances are graceful.

That is what film is about: to bring back alive an already dead fantasy.
