      @@marlenearchives I first saw Marlene Dietrich at a midnight charity performance at The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London in about 1972. I was very poor and only could afford a seat in the very top of the theatre. There were 100s of people waiting to see her at the stage door and because I was at the top of the theatre it had taken me ages to get out so I was at the very back of the crowd. She did not wait to give autographs, I think she was overwhelmed by the size of the crowd. She was swept away, to the Savoy Hotel and as the car drove slowly down Drury Lane I was able to run along side it and had a perfect view of her. A year or so later Dietrich returned to London and did a series of concerts at The Queens Theatre on Shaftesbury Lane. I was there for the first night and now I had a better seat. Still there were crowds at the stage door but in the audience there had been many of the Hollywood greats that had been to her dressing room to see her so we got to see them as they left. Then Dietrich came out, climbed up onto the Rolls Royce and threw autographed photos into the crowd - I got one! A year or so later she gave concerts at the Wimbledon Theatre. Again I was there on the first night and now I had a seat in the front row of the stalls. Again I was there at the stage door but this time she did not give autographs but got into the car immediately. Probably the next year she returned and again I was in the front row on the first night. For most of the second act everyone was out of their seats crowding forward but I was there right at the front. Encore after encore, it was always the same formula - and we loved it. Once again I was at the stage door and this time she stayed, talking, kissing, signing programmes and my programme was passed over the heads of others, signed and passed back to me. Gradually the crowd thinned out but still she stayed until there were just a handful of us. Dietrich stopped, she looked around at us, it was as though she was looking for someone - she was and she saw who she was looking for. Me, she came over to me, took hold of both my hands, kissed both my cheeks. Said goodnight and then got into the car and drove away. I never saw her again.

Her daughter and media has talked on this sparingly, but there may have been other people she tried to pimp her daughter to. Some have thought Marlene did this to always keep her daughter close and made to feel like no one could love her so she would only have mommy.

    Not too long after this interview in 1972, Marlene Dietrich had an accident during one of her concerts when she fell off the stage and suffered a compound fracture of her leg. Shortly after that, she retired from live performances. A few years later, she retired completely and became a recluse in her Paris apartment where she lived the last 20 years of her life. I'll never forget the day she passed. It was headline news around the world. She was a woman of the world but also an American hero. I highly recommend the film made by her grandson David Riva -- 'Marlene Dietrich -- Her Own Song'.

In 1979, her career as an actress ended, but until her death she wrote books, was interested in life behind the apartment. By the way, she went to her apartment in America for a long time, until about 1982, after that she paid for an apartment there until her death.

      She is wearing tapes here behind her face, which lift her face up, that was something very common in the 60s 70s especially for film stars. And she used to have the very best cosmetics and aesthetics in Hollywood to preserve her myth.

      @@marlenearchives this is on his Wikipedia page..] His eventual co-star, Marlene Dietrich, was the source of much attention when she arrived in Britain. Donat was caught up in the furor, and the stress was so great that he suffered a nervous collapse a few days into the shooting; Donat entered a nursing home.[31] The production delay caused by Donat's asthma led to talk of replacing him. Dietrich, whose contract with Korda was for $450,000, threatened to leave the project if that happened, and production was halted for two months, until Donat was able to return to work.[32]
