Kauf dir einen bunten Luftballon

Alright, this is a remake of an UFA classic. It is predictable. Some scenes are simple, to say the least. The leading girl has no charisma (and I don't like her singing much), and the Olympic star as the male lead is not a great actor. But still, what fun! What songs! What atmosphere! Really nice outdoor and stage scenes. A real feel-good review plus comedy! And some of the greatest comedy stars of Germany at that time - including Oskar Sima, Ernst Stankovski, and the great Heinz Erhard. They all manifestly enjoy acting in this movie. Okay, this is not Almodovar, but nor is life - and if it is, thanks for wonderful entertainment like this, because one needs it even more!
