    • Quotes

      Prof. Julius Angermann: I'm getting so I don't care who wins this war, if only it were over.

      Maj. Foster MacLain: Isn't that rather dangerous talk here in Germany?

      Prof. Julius Angermann: It's dangerous talk anywhere. My only hope now is that the world will be a better place when this is over.

      Maj. Foster MacLain: Let's say it can't be worse.

      Prof. Julius Angermann: It's a scientific fact, I believe, that the darkness is usually followed by the dawn.

    Glamorized Propaganda
    Those who prefer dramas as "Germany: Year Zero" may find "Fräulein" a bit too glamorized depiction of the drama of German people during and after World War II. Made during Cold War years, and every now and then spoilt by American propaganda, it is though an interesting story, dealing with a young woman from Köln who fights her way through war and armistice in Berlin, preserving her virginity every time she is forced into prostitution or quick sex with German clients or Russian soldiers. Dana Wynter gives a restrained one-note performance, but keeps the view interested with all the dramatic turns in her life, even if the denouement is typical Hollywood formula.
