Whilst a German challenge has been taking place on ICM this month, I&#39;ve been struggling to find the right title to watch and enter the viewings with. Checking the various run times of the various Wiener Film I have waiting to view,I found one with a short and sweet run time,which led to me seeing love end. View on the film: Done in the dresses of the Wiener Film genre, the screenplay by co-writer/(with Walter Reisch) director Karl Hartl sliders underhanded comments of the problems taking place, via the references to the &quot;Clouds of war on the horizon&quot; and the diplomatic attempts to get Austria and France to have an arm in arm relationship to stop a war from breaking out. Holding back from going too political, the Hartl and Reisch stir up sweet Wiener Film wish fulfilment, blossoming star-crossed love between Louise and Franz. Whilst the rough edges of the picture quality have taken some of the shine off,Hartl &amp; cinematographer Franz Planer refined stylisation still sparkles, shimmering in the grand palace of Louise, an eye-catching use of water for the outpouring of love between Frantz/ Louise, and overlapping images on the cross Louise must bare. Joining up in front of the camera after working together on Maskerade (1934) Willi Forst and Paula Wessely give exquisite performances as Franz and Louise, as the flamboyant passions Forst gives Franz are neatly tied by the restrained love Wessely holds Louise with,when the couple experience the end of a great love.

So endete eine Liebe

Gustave Grundgens plays Count Metternich and Edwin Juergensen plays Tallyrand, both play political advisers to Napoleon .They are arranging a marriage for him to Archduchess Marie Louis,In Austria, played by Paula Wessley to stave of another war between Austria and France. He asks Franz ,duke of Modena,played by Wili Forst, to go to her fathers estate, Emperor Franz the first, played by Franz Herterich, Who played the theatrical director in Burg theater,1936, to inform the emperor&#39;s family and her Marie, being that he&#39;s a relative of theirs too. But it fouls up a bit when Franz falls in love with Marie.This was before Willi Forsrt organized his Vienna film production . I got the feeling that he was short and was wearing high shoes to be taller than Wessley. Maria Koppenhofer shows up again as the mother of Napoleon.This was done is almost a Vanity fair,Becky sharp,Thakaray style.Napoleon does not show up until near the end at the wedding.no propaganda neither

It&#39;s a great movie! The duke of Modena is a (as I would say in Italian) &quot;grande gnocco&quot;. I didn&#39;t understand a single word of it, but the actors are great. GG.
