Their wedding a year ago in Hohenschwangau was played as a Bavarian fairy tale come true. Now it seems that Princess Anna-Maria Elizabeth, 25, prefers a local innkeeper to her husband, Prince Max Emanuel von Thurn und Taxis, 34. The prince, she said, "couldn't fulfill his marital duties."

There is Candice Bergen, grimacing as she loses her virginity to the offscreen sound of firecrackers banging. There is windy dialogue ("Yesterday never happens again"). There is the rhythmic up-and-down movement of a camera...
...change? Must we die, like Schlink? Brecht calls death "the coldest answer." Do we keep on wrestling, like Garga? He is going to New York, but will probably fail and return soon. Shall we make love, like Garga's sister, Maria? She will never find real love...
