Comedian Harmonists (1997)
Directed by Joseph Vilsmaier
"If we hadn't had to separate, we were more famous than the Beatles today." So says Roman Cycowski, the last survivor of the Comedian Harmonists. Joseph Vilsmayer's movie is the story of the first boy-group of the world. "Veronika, der Lenz ist da" and "Mein kleiner grüner Kaktus" are just two of the unforgettable songs sung by this sextet. Founded 1927 in Berlin, Germany, the Harmonists get quickly very popular in whole Europe. But with the upcoming national-socialism the three Jewish members of the Comedian Harmonists felt compelled to flee into the exile. Vilsmayer succeeds a magnificient movie about a German legend - a movie, which stands out good against the customary German comedy-monotony of the last years.

Daniella By Night (1961)......Starring: Elke Sommer
Sex kitten Sommer is hired to model for an exclusive Roman fashion house, but she gets into more trouble off the runway. Considered scandalous at the time of its release because of a nude scene.
