The Marriage of Maria Braun
Maria marries Hermann Braun in the last days of World War II, only for him to go missing in the war. Alone, Maria puts to use her beauty and ambition in order to find prosperity during Germany's "economic miracle" of the 1950s.
“Fassbinder himself was cruel and distant to those around him...and in Maria Braun, he created an indelible monster who is perversely fascinating.”
— Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
