Her beloved Germany turned to the dark side & she left. She refused to follow Hitler into his oblivion of hate & fought him with all of her might & abilities. She could never really return so she lived the rest of her life in New York & Paris.
I saw this twice on Broadway and she was amazing finding out later that she was in excruciating pain in her legs and they were abandoned and swollen and she was a great pain but she was a trooper
I have this recording from London in 1972 .....she was absolutely fabulous ❤....glamorous as always ....never to be repeated . My mother saw her perform at the Alhambra Theater in Cape Town ; South Africa in the mid sixties ....she was already in her 60's and didn't look a day older than 40 ❤
It's true. The European Christians brought up not to pay too much attention to yourself, like how you look if u beautiful, but the inside quality should be nurtured, and your work and achievements are important. Of course you know when you look good 😂
She was so glamorous and elegant. No matter what people may think or say about her, she carried herself with such grace. She basically floated on that stage when she came out
Das Konzert wirkt so steril,daß Orchester ist überhaupt nicht zu sehen,fr. Dietrich spult ihr Repertoire runter,steht einfach nur vorm Mikrofon u. Interagiert gar nicht mit dem publikum.
Dietrich didnt like that concert. Audience was invited and was not her usual crowd. She was mad that they was dressed to official and she was mad about 'pink filth' stage
I have this on DVD and haven't watched it for years. She sounds good, but but her attempts of appearing sexy at her age are terribly cringe worthy. The special would be much better without the "sexy grandma" gimmick. Anyway, thanks for uploading!
It all came together in that moment.Her,the dress, the Kennedy's.The pinnacle of her beauty,but that night was the beginning of the end.The "late" gag feels menacing now.
I was in the 8th grade, at the school library when i came across book 📚 series, History of the movies, which had all the past actors/actresses achievements in film 📽️. With Dietrich it concluded (thus was 1976), with this concert. I knew of her from TV reruns 📺 movies, "witness for the prosecution", in particular. Her face, the name Marlene. Of all actresses, along with Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, she's the most intriguing person who was disciplined and emotionally connected in her performance tiwards the audience. What a treat to finally see the legendary Dietrich stunningly performance, i seen a VHS back in 1993, however not merely as clear version as of this gem 💎🎶. 🎉
What I admired most of Dietrich, (aside from her glamorous image) is her discipline. It comes up with time to most of us, if ever. Journey through life, communicable through her songs. Impeccable. 🌱⛲💎⭐💙
