Adenauer served as Cologne's mayor until 1933, when Hitler took over. Brownshirts adorned the city's bridge with swastika flags for the Fuhrer's first visit, but Adenauer had them torn down before Hitler arrived and refused to greet him. That abruptly ended his career as mayor, and he was classified as "politically unreliable." He spent the next twelve years alternately in prison or reading and tending his roses in the hillside villa he built at RhÖndorf. There, near war's end, he was nearly hit by an American shell as he watched...

As the loudspeakers blare the sort of martial music that would have stirred Von Ribbentrop, Bertha von Paraboum for the first time turns to face the audience fully, and there, serving as a G-string, is a swastika. Victoria Nankin is billed as "the Yé-Yé Widow." To show her grief, Bernardin has veiled her nude form with large black dots, achieved with lighting. All she does is remove a filmy gown, sit up, and hold her arms like a sphinx. But that is quite enough...
