(BRD stands for Bundesrepublik Deutschland - German for West Germany.) Among the more than three hours of documentaries and specially produced features on disc four are exceptionally lucid interviews with Fassbinder's three stars, Hanna Schygulla, Rosel Zech and Barbara Sukowa. The audio commentary on Maria Braun is by director Wim Wenders and Michael Ballhaus, Fassbinder's (and now Martin Scorsese's) always brilliant cinematographer...
