Storyline
Acclaimed, award-winning filmmaker Maximillian Schell reconstructs the life and career of the enigmatic film diva. This is accomplished through use of archival footage and commentary from the actress recorded at her home. Schell's job was complicated by the aging actresses's stipulation that her face not be photographed directly.—duke1029@aol.com

Short Review
Marlene, then, is infuriating, but rarely boring: Dietrich herself makes sure of that.
