  1. …came up with some pretty decent english subtitles for this one…have fun:

    …this one caught me completely off guard…Thiele appears to be at his most consciously arthouse here.
    The comedy tag on imdb isn’t entirely wrong, but it is quite a bit misleading…
    and used in a very loose / relaxed manner. The 8.4 certainly oversells it far too much as well,
    although it does deserve re-discovery (if nothing else, the direction is impeccable).
    Due to it’s release date, i was expecting something likely similar to ‘Moral 63’,
    which i remember being playful and somewhat ‘godardian’…but hasn’t really registered in my memory.
    Well now, this one, playful it is as well, plenty…but it’s a rather moody chamber drama of sorts overall instead,
    quite heavily indebted to theatre of the absurd (the ‘comedic’ aspect if you will),
    with the characters being more of abstractions than actual living persons…
    To keep it short, not really the kind of film i’d expect from the director of the generally well-known Rosemary (1958).
    Fans of 60s arthouse should definitely check it out…but others will most likely feel alienated. Recommended… 🙂

    As always, deeply thanks for posting this one (and to whomever requested it in the first place)…

    1. xrt I completely agree, and the ending is disturbing because it contradicts the clichĂ© that barbies’s meeting seemed to have meant. The funniest thing is that, because it was Sunday, I saw it to enjoy Marisa Mell

      1. Hahaha, yeap, that one was a far cry from her more colourful / ‘pop’ 60s appearances, let alone her 70s giallo-oriented mindless fun ones… Honestly very surprised that still up to this very date, late 2024, and there are still damn fine drama and/or arthouse films from the 50s/60s to be uncovered…On the whole, easily the two most productive & progressive decades – socially as well, not merely artistically…
