‘Still’ Movie Review: An Interesting Premise, but Poor Execution
Overall this movie was an easy watch, but by no means a worthwhile watch.
Bremen Freedom
A very stylized TV version of the Fassbinder play. The set consists of a few pieces of furniture in front of a large screen on which coastal scenery is back projected. Geesche is a nineteenth-century woman who wants to have a mind of her own. She defies convention and will do anything to achieve her freedom from oppression by her family and friends.
