| A thrilling tear-jerker with a surprising plot
The film Mazurka from Germany, 1935, is a wonderful combination of a -maybe too- sentimental story with a very surprising plot.

The atmosphere is comparable with Rebecca of A. Hitchcock: eventually in the last twenty minutes suddenly everything becomes clear.

The film offers a wonderful view of the way of living in Middle Europe in the '30s. Most actors speak German with an East-European accent which sounds friendlier than average German accent.

I hope this film will become available on DVD. If it does: Purchase it, sit back, enjoy the film and... don't forget to put a box of Kleenex beside you. You'll need it!

Trivia

Although Pola Negri did her own singing in the cabaret scenes, the higher (soprano) lines in the operetta scenes were dubbed by Hilde Seipp.

Crazy Credits

The first three credits shown, one at a time, are for the writer, the composer, and the photographer. Only then are credits shown for the actors. A very unusual tribute to creativity!
