A Lubitsch movie with my queen Marlene Dietrich could never go wrong <3
I loved how the black-and-white in certain shots made the characters’ eyes shimmer with such emotional intensity ! I’m feeling sad for my girl Maria though, she just wanted to get laid 😔… remember, communication is key, girls 🙏 Also, they understood it all when they cast Dietrich as “Angel”, because that’s exactly what she is.
Like yeah, I too would betray my friend for her (Lili si tu lis ça, pas toi tkt <3)
