''Dancing, music, champagne. The best way to forget...until you find something you want to remember..'' Oooooh..sends shivers. Pure class Dietrich. What a woman.
You probably dont care but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend for the last weeks xD
It has been a while since I've seen it but I remember reading somewhere that they weren't ever actually on the same stage, they shot their scenes separately and then joined in editing.
In an interview Bowie was asked what it was like working with Marlene Dietrich. He said I wished I knew. Dietrich refused to come to Germany where the movie was shot. All her scenes were shot in Paris, and edited later. Incidentally, there is also a scene where he is cradling a piglet in his arms. The scenes were shot over a period of three weeks, during which the pig kept growing. In the movie the pig goes from small to big to small again, depending on which way the camera is pointing.
The aren't actually in the same room together. Marlene filmed her parts in Paris, where had taken up residence in her later years, and David filmed in Berlin, where he was living at the time. The filmmakers cut their separate footages together. They never even met! David was reportedly heartbroken over this...
Dietrich was never our greatest singer, but her renditions of songs are so personal, so thought provoking, so emotional. The ending of the video when she sings, ..."and life goes on without me." I wanted to cry :(
After that scene she said ill never show myself in public again .Goreo Garbo reclused herself at 40 Marline at 70..to both rest in peace and David rest in peace 🙏AMEN.💞💞💞🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Now both gone. Amazing to think about just how much one person can contribute to the world, or two, without being kings, queens, or heads of state. Just awesome, talented, risk taking, ground breaking, geniuses! RIP
+Jan DeFrank Marlene was 77 years old, perhaps more. She did not travel to Berlin but her scenes were shot independently in Paris and later cut into Bowie's scenes in Berlin. They did not meet.
+papoocanada It would of been better if they actually met and under other circumstances. Marlene wouldn't go to Berlin so they are never together in the same shot. The movie was not well or kindly received. It was Marlene's last film. David later referred to it as his "32 Elvis movies rolled into one".
I saw this film many, many years ago when it was shown on cable. I watched it mainly to see Bowie...I was just starting my love-struck fascination with him in the early 80's when i entered high school. This scene I always loved two legends...a world that had lost its dignity.....love to see this one again.
Heavens to Murgatroid ! I had never even heard of this late 70s film until seeing it mentioned in a recent issue of "The New Yorker" magazine. Very interesting to see a young David Bowie and Ms Dietrich in her last film. Thank you very much for sharing this intriguing "blast from the past" ! CHEERS !! :-)
Digs into the memory, reminds me how I pursued his legendary creativity, but life does not, for me, go on the same without him.... David Bowie had a magic, and I hear stories of this magic, being revealed now.... but I am yet not to feel tragic...
Marlene and David what else can I say ,two of my favorites Marlene from the 1920s,and David from the 1970s,both departed but not forgotten,God bless them both,they may be gone but there not forgotten,their legacy of fame lives on in our hearts,rest in peace Marlene and David,amen🐦💙🌈💏😘💖💟👍✌😘💏
with what envy the people above talk about Marlene! Do not believe them, all these rumors appeared after her death! She did not undergo plastic surgery to rejuvenate herself. She was magical :)
Dietrich was still amazing when this was made wish I was round to meet her then... Steven Spielber met her and said "they don't make'em like her anymore."
ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL, CLASSY, SENSUAL, ACCOMPLISHED! MARLENE COULD DO EVERYTHING, BE WHATEVER SHE WANTED TO, JUST BECAUSE... SHE WAS MARLENE, THE ONE AND ONLY GODDESS♥♡♥♡♥♡
I have seen photos of Marlene's outfit, which is now in the caring hands of a wonderful Dietrich collector, and its beautiful green color was not captured in this film. Nevertheless, it has always delighted me that two of my favorite stars appeared in a film together (albeit, with the magic of movie-making).
Dietrich deserved so much better than this travesty, I realised she did it for the money, it was ghastly, a great star like Dietrich should have had a more fitting farewell !
Actually lagerfeld made the outfit, and Marlene complained to the makeup artist that she hadn't given her "Marlene lips". She did it for the money (250,000 pounds). But she did think that Bowie was "a great stylist".
Although they never met, one would like to think they would've been fast friends. Filmed separately for this movie, it works because they each possessed the magc of their talent. As for Marlene, she was wise enough to stay out of the limelight in later years in order to preserve the legend, which she sensed she'd become. Like her, Bowie, too, was cognizant of his own immortality, and always played to the audience he created. They were stars extraordinaire!
Such a strange little movie. I'm sure it was panned as being too sympathetic a portrayal of the post-world war I Germans and the their struggles . Bowie's character has returned from the war and cannot get employment, ending up quite tragically. The movie deserved more open minds and a kinder reception in my opinion
Yes, as I said, Dietrich and Bowie never got to meet, and Bowie was pretty disappointed. But health issues made it impossible. I'm sure there was money issues as well. My grama would let me stay up late with with her to watch old movies. Bette, Crawford, Garbo, and Dietrich especially, I thought of her like wonder woman! It was so weird to see her so frail...and so small. RIP MD
That whole speech coming from somebody who has never even been nominated for the Oscars, you can speak all the languages in the world, but you have never won one award with one of them, so there, checkmate!
Marlene's daughter, Maria Riva, said that Dietrich was so drunk on the set of Just a Gigolo that she, Maria, had to hold up flash cards of the song lyrics.
Yeah but ya know her daughter never missed a chance to complain about her and naturally she's gonna see her in a different light, but it's like she's made a career out of complaining about her mother.. She may have been somewhat irresponsible, and selfish as a mother, but she did love her her daughter so much
Ha lived in a brownstone new York Town House which needless to say her mother provided for her daughter Paid i believe all the outgoings for the family Got nothing but resentment in return Maria is a classy version of Christina Crawford Still when eventually Maria passes Away Marlene Dietrichs daughter dies In life and death always in the shadow Thats the problem 😕
Mark Hughes And now Prussia no longer exists. Thank God. It’s sole existence was to produce war. It was the only nation to be outlawed by the United Nations for that reason. Good riddance.
I was master of ceremonies on the SS Nieuw Amsterdam and danced with the ladies. There i met an older woman....i fell in love with her and we made love all night ..she knew I was just a gigolo. In the morning she told me you may leave now...
She gathers it all up The Voice the beauty she lets us Enjoy it one last time like a bouquet a very large bouquet of dried flowers and she's gone she's never forgotten 4 she must never be forgotten you put the periods and I'm just too old do it tonight
''Dancing, music, champagne. The best way to forget...until you find something you want to remember..'' Oooooh..sends shivers. Pure class Dietrich. What a woman.
Absolutely!
Yay, shes so fine! John Wayne said shes so hot, even in a mans tuxedo
You probably dont care but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend for the last weeks xD
@Dash Theo yup, I have been using InstaFlixxer for years myself =)
And what a man...
Two of the most charismatic stars to have ever existed together in one scene.
It has been a while since I've seen it but I remember reading somewhere that they weren't ever actually on the same stage, they shot their scenes separately and then joined in editing.
In an interview Bowie was asked what it was like working with Marlene Dietrich. He said I wished I knew. Dietrich refused to come to Germany where the movie was shot. All her scenes were shot in Paris, and edited later.

💖💖💖💖⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️🦋🦋🦋🦋☀️☀️
It's such a special moment, her last visual appearance, so touching, and the song, the perfect farewell for one of the greatest Divas of them all.
RIP Bowie, RIP Dietrich, King and Queen of their respective realms.
RIH

The filmmakers cut their separate footages together. They never even met! David was reportedly heartbroken over this...
Oh that’s soooo sad! 😭
Ahhhh I would be too
Bowie parts was recorded much earlier also. Dietrich part was recorded only after whole film was recorded.
Interesting.
Broken-hearted is her fate in this!
Dietrich was never our greatest singer, but her renditions of songs are so personal, so thought provoking, so emotional. The ending of the video when she sings, ..."and life goes on without me." I wanted to cry :(
Go ahead and cry I did I saw her one-woman show on Broadway twice so spectacular so together so cold
After that scene she said ill never show myself in public again .Goreo Garbo reclused herself at 40 Marline at 70..to both rest in peace and David rest in peace 🙏AMEN.💞💞💞🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm reading about this right now in her biography and I had to stop and see this. She was 76!!!! OMG what an icon. One if a kind. RIP
This clip does send shivers. The elegance and sophistication is an allure.
It is such a pity those times have gone. There is no glamour today, no elegance, no reserve.
Now both gone. Amazing to think about just how much one person can contribute to the world, or two, without being kings, queens, or heads of state. Just awesome, talented, risk taking, ground breaking, geniuses! RIP

+papoocanada she was born in 1901 the movie cane out in '78 , amazing woman , Bowie and Dietrich my 2 idols .......
+papoocanada that's a shame.

It would of been better if they actually met and under other circumstances.
Marlene wouldn't go to Berlin so they are never together in the same shot.
The movie was not well or kindly received. It was Marlene's last film. David later referred to it as his "32 Elvis movies rolled into one".
Thanks.
The Great Dietrich - As glamorous as ever.
This is just wonderful. They both look fabulous.
I saw this film many, many years ago when it was shown on cable. I watched it mainly to see Bowie...I was just starting my love-struck fascination with him in the early 80's when i entered high school.

Im still listening to Marlene’s songs 💖

Very interesting to see a young David Bowie and Ms Dietrich in her last film. Thank you very much for sharing this intriguing "blast from the past" ! CHEERS !! :-)
Two originals. Immortal moments.
Memories like few others. So missed.
Elegance is an attitude.
How true.
True!
they never filmed together, he never even got to meet her--- her scenes were fil
med in Paris, his in Berlin-- oh, the magic of editing.
Yes! I was able to tell.
Awesome !
Marlene Forever !!
Thanks for sharing !
Digs into the memory, reminds me how I pursued his legendary creativity,
but life does not, for me, go on the same without him.... David Bowie had a magic,
and I hear stories of this magic, being revealed now.... but I am yet not to feel tragic...
thank you for putting the scenes together
She pulls it out of the bag one last time bless her - wonderful
Heard for most of filming she was half in the bag.
"And life goes on without me..."
Is our fate as human beings!
One of the most sobering lines I have ever heard in a song
Marlene and David what else can I say ,two of my favorites Marlene from the 1920s,and David from the 1970s,both departed but not forgotten,God bless them both,they may be gone but there not forgotten,their legacy of fame lives on in our hearts,rest in peace Marlene and David,amen🐦💙🌈💏😘💖💟👍✌😘💏
I love Marlene Dietrich.
I adore this woman.
I love the way Marlene Dietrich talks her accents and all... So professional......😘💕💕💕........
The recwootment; dancing, music, champagne, the best way to forget, until you find something to remember.....
Two of my favorite people too
Who would have thought that Marlene Dietrich was almost 80 at the time, she didn't even look 50.
Hell of lot of smoke & mirrors.
And facelifts
with what envy the people above talk about Marlene! Do not believe them, all these rumors appeared after her death! She did not undergo plastic surgery to rejuvenate herself. She was magical :)
@@marlenearchives
You’re joking, I hope.
@@EYE_GOTCHA About what? About that she didn't do any plastic surgery when she was old? That's true, she didn't do it.
Saw this when it first came out, back in the day. It was in an artsy cinema in Chicago
David Bowie and Marlene Dietrich: Meeting of the giants of charisma. (Even if they have not met in real).
David Bowie is Awsome in this movie and Marlena Dietrich too!
Dietrich was still amazing when this was made wish I was round to meet her then... Steven Spielber met her and said "they don't make'em like her anymore."
i would love to see the movie some day
Oh, and the oh so gorgeous Madeline Kahn pulled off a great imitation of MD, in Blazing Saddles. One of my favourite films. Fabulous, darling!
the two major talents meet, what a moment in time, breathtaking for ever
A famous 100 year well written Song! And even made to a movie!
mis dos grandes mito MARLENE y BOWIE
Majestic splendor of big stars like you dear David Bowie and Marlene Dietrich ~
Marlene says good-bye with the help of Bowie!
Beutifull Bowie and marlene

Grand grand Marlene !!
I miss her! :(
Indimenticabile interpretazione della coraggiosa Marlene Dietrich.
Bowie y Dietrich. Qué maravilla!!
ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL, CLASSY, SENSUAL, ACCOMPLISHED! MARLENE COULD DO EVERYTHING, BE WHATEVER SHE WANTED TO, JUST BECAUSE... SHE WAS MARLENE, THE ONE AND ONLY GODDESS♥♡♥♡♥♡
Two greats

two legends
Incroyable doc, merci 😍😍
...she lived to a wonderful age...the mesmorizing Marlene
I Love this Movie my Favorite
Marlene 💖
my 2 idols , thank you !
No freaking jowls! She looked amazing for her age.
Diamond Dave followed this proudly ..when the end comes i know.. [lots] ^^
she is so beautiful in her last movie wunderbar
The elegy for every one of us.
Actually lagerfeld made the outfit, and Marlene complained to the makeup artist that she hadn't given her "Marlene lips". She did it for the money (250,000 pounds). But she did think that Bowie was "a great stylist".
The makeup artist was a man. She chose him.
Although they never met, one would like to think they would've been fast friends. Filmed separately for this movie, it works because they each possessed the magc of their talent. As for Marlene, she was wise enough to stay out of the limelight in later years in order to preserve the legend, which she sensed she'd become. Like her, Bowie, too, was cognizant of his own immortality, and always played to the audience he created. They were stars extraordinaire!
Yes. It was perfect that they produced thie without ever meeting. Perfect.....
Such a strange little movie. I'm sure it was panned as being too sympathetic a portrayal of the post-world war I Germans and the their struggles . Bowie's character has returned from the war and cannot get employment, ending up quite tragically. The movie deserved more open minds and a kinder reception in my opinion
It was a movie ahead of it's time
Yes, she sure did :-))
She even designed her outfit for this movie herself !
Sublime ...Siempre Marlene .
Yes, as I said, Dietrich and Bowie never got to meet, and Bowie was pretty disappointed. But health issues made it impossible. I'm sure there was money issues as well. My grama would let me stay up late with with her to watch old movies. Bette, Crawford, Garbo, and Dietrich especially, I thought of her like wonder woman! It was so weird to see her so frail...and so small. RIP MD
Wait, dit they film it separately ?
Jan DeFrank oh I loved bette midler! And I fucking loveeeee dietrich! She is my favorite!
+kimmy loves vintage, sorry it took two years to reply. I wasn't talking about Bette Midler, that was Bette DAVIS, the movie star!
That whole speech coming from somebody who has never even been nominated for the Oscars, you can speak all the languages in the world, but you have never won one award with one of them, so there, checkmate!
ALWAYS AMAZING !
superb
I'm crying. what a fucking legend. dietrich is dead, long live dietrich!
RIP Both!
Intriguing
From her screen test in 1930 to this final scene. The Piano plays an all important part. I wish I could have met her.

RIP BOWIE
Why do i feel sad watching this,😔😖,
Bowie and Dietrich never met. The scene is clipped together with two footage. Dietrich in Paris and Bowie in Berlin.
Together again, today.
I fucking love her!
Marlene was great:)
They were not in the same room when this was filmed. Bowie’s scenes were filmed in Berlin, and Dietrichs near her home in Paris.
R.I.H.
Marlene's daughter, Maria Riva, said that Dietrich was so drunk on the set of Just a Gigolo that she, Maria, had to hold up flash cards of the song lyrics.
Yeah but ya know her daughter never missed a chance to complain about her and naturally she's gonna see her in a different light, but it's like she's made a career out of complaining about her mother.. She may have been somewhat irresponsible, and selfish as a mother, but she did love her her daughter so much
Ha lived in a brownstone new York Town House which needless to say her mother provided for her daughter
Paid i believe all the outgoings for the family
Got nothing but resentment in return
Maria is a classy version of Christina Crawford
Still when eventually Maria passes Away
Marlene Dietrichs daughter dies
In life and death always in the shadow
Thats the problem 😕
Knowing this now, AHS: FreakShow feels so fitting all the more
What a missed opportunity for a duet
she was a genius....I love How she held herself together...she was so Prussian and aristocratic.
Mark Hughes And now Prussia no longer exists. Thank God. It’s sole existence was to produce war. It was the only nation to be outlawed by the United Nations for that reason. Good riddance.

..and life goes on without him.....nur wieland und die anderen sind noch da.
Marlene and Bowie never met, Marlene was filmed by a second unit in Paris.
They did meet, in her apartment in Paris. Bowie wanted to get stills with her, but she refused.
First Bing Crosby now this! What a Man.
by the way he played Pontios Pilot once and was really quite good.
They never met.
They filmed their scenes in seperate cities and it was edited together.
Marlene would not return to Germany.
she returned to germany dead
She did. In her coffin she came back to Berlin.

Poignant 😢
Marlene fine person
where's the sound?
A bad film that only the wonderful Marlene will remember. I would have wished her a better film, a better role as a graduation.
I like Missoiur David Bowie music , madamoisselle. Leib alles Herr jo£ ❤
remember this movie
I tried to buy this years ago & they wanted a lot for it!!!!!!!!!
Why does Bowie change clothes between the shots ?
I was master of ceremonies on the SS Nieuw Amsterdam and danced with the ladies. There i met an older woman....i fell in love with her and we made love all night ..she knew I was just a gigolo. In the morning she told me you may leave now...
Wow, you can really dance.....
She gathers it all up The Voice the beauty she lets us Enjoy it one last time like a bouquet a very large bouquet of dried flowers and she's gone she's never forgotten 4 she must never be forgotten you put the periods and I'm just too old do it tonight
