- TriviaEva Mattes, who plays Brigitte Mira in this movie, also performed in a few movies by Rainer Werner Fassbinder back in the 1970s, including In a Year with 13 Moons (1978), Effi Briest (1974), and The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant (1972).
- GoofsWhen rehearsing Goethe's "Iphiganie on Tauris," Fassbinder suggests giving the audience tomatoes to either eat or to throw at the actors. While this idea is true, it was made for a different performance in this theater: "Leonce and Lena" by Georg Büchner.
- Quotes
Rainer Werner Fassbinder: The theater is not enough for me.
Kurt Raab: What do you want to do?
Rainer Werner Fassbinder: Movies. Movies abour this country. The material is lying on the streets. I already wrote 3 movies and have 4 movies in my head.
[Kurt is impressed]
Rainer Werner Fassbinder: Wherever you go is material that is about how people see their dreams and how their dreams get destroyed. The theater can't do it. Only cinema can do it.

Featured review
Fassbinder was a really productive director, and there has already been several books about him. This is probably the first film. The format is bad suited, I don't feel that I get a portrait of Fassbinder and neither his work as a director. He just jumps from one bad relationship to the next, uses drugs and acts like a douchbag to everyone else.
Everything in the film takes place inside what obviously is a studio and the backgrounds are painted, if Fassbinder ever worked in a German expressionist way this could have explained it as an artistic choice but it just feels cheap.
The film takes place between 1976 to 1982, they have casted an actor born 1968. He is perfect as the older Fassbinder but when he is supposed to be 22 and he is 30 years older in real life, it was just cringe.
It felt more like they didn't have the money to have a younger cast.
If I didn't know anything about Fassbinder or his films I think I wouldn't been able to follow the story.
