A Tribute to Marlene Dietrich: Watch Out for Blonde Women
A Tribute to Marlene Dietrich with Dorit Gäbler
Actress Dorit Gäbler dedicates this evening to actress Marlene Dietrich —in admiration of the legend that Marlene Dietrich created for herself, and in appreciation of some of Dietrich’s eccentricities, even though she was disciplined like no other at work, always considerate of the team she was working with at the time, and confident in handling admiration and power.
The songs that Dietrich sang during her guest performances around the world are still popular today, even though they weren’t written for her—whether it’s “Lili Marleen,” “Paff, the Magic Dragon,” “Die Antwort, mein Freund, weiß ganz allein der Wind,” or “Sag mir, wo die Blumen sind.”
Her way of moving was often imitated. Dorit Gäbler does not copy her; she draws on the insights of contemporaries she has spoken with or from the wealth of publications about this magnificent actress, this “human being,” as Billy Wilder called her.
It is intentional that, just as with Dietrich, some of these songs get under your skin.
