Hanna Schygulla

Hanna Schygulla (25.12.1943 years)

I went to the movies with R. V. Fassbinder, who invited her first in 'Anti-Theater', and then began to shoot in film. Their first joint work 'Love is colder than death' (1969), but before Schygulla appeared in the film 'The hunting scene in Lower Bavaria' P. Flyayshmana.

Schygulla and Fassbinder made 21 films together from 1969 to 1974, then from 1978 to 1980. They create images have undergone a complex evolution.

. Personal relations director and actress are to some extent a mystery, but one thing is certain: the myth Schygulla was created by director, he also formed her performing personality, took the best tape her participation
. First, the actress appears the embodiment of human wholeness, . spirituality and kindness (especially instructive role in 'Kattselmahere' and 'Email to a four seasons'), . Fassbinder and extols her beauty, . rare femininity and harmony, . trying on her various images of seduction in their genre stylizations ( 'Love is colder, . than death ', . 'The gods of plague', . 'Whitey', etc.).,

. Frank confession of love - the image of the actress Hanna in 'Caution holy whore'
. But the real discovery Schygulla happening in the film 'Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant' (1972), where a dreamy, feminine contemplation of its heroine disappears morally and psychologically crippled creature.

. After the film 'Fontane Effi Brist' Schygulla breaks his creative affair with Fassbinder, not wanting to be content with the role model
. Five years later, they meet for a better film Fassbinder's' Marriage of Maria Braun "(1978, Award for her role in the International Film Festival in West Berlin-79), where, finally, achieved a balance between the role of Fassbinder-masters and performing talent Schygulla.

. Restraint acting mannerisms, magnetism Schygulla have been ideal to use, and furthermore, no reminding about the restructuring of the German woman, she was able to translate the on-screen metaphor for 'Maria Braun - is Germany itself. "

. The same can be said about the film 'Lili Marlene' (1980), where the image of canary-idol Forks, another embodiment of the German character and soul, still treated melodramatic and familiar.

. In the series' Berlin
. Alexanderplatz '(1979) Schygulla plays a temptress while archetypical female archetype of personal history of the Fassbinder. Woman sphinx, . Beauty and the embodiment of femininity, . designed to recall the bizarre universe of his Pygmalion - this appears Schygulla in many other works ( 'Wrong Move', . 'Passion', . 'Antonietta', . 'The history of Pierre', . prize at the Cannes International Film Festival, 'The Future - is a woman', . 'The Adventures of Catherine K.').,

. Sometimes her role is very good, but it is only harping on the cinematic myth, created through the unique roles in Fassbinder's films.
