Filmography. All titles written and directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder unless stated otherwise. According to Hanna Schygulla, Fassbinder had no part in the making of Why Does Herr R. Run Amok?; it was realized from his idea by Michael Fengler, his assistant. [1] Films about Fassbinder.
The American Soldier. 1970 1h 20m. 6.5 (1.9K) Rate. Ricky is a cold-blooded U.S. German contract killer. After serving in Viet Nam, he returns to his home town of Munich to eliminate a few problem crooks for three renegade cops.
Fassbinder used his theatrical work as a springboard for making films; and many of the Anti-Theater actors and crew worked with him throughout his entire career (for instance, he made 20 films each with actresses Hanna Schygulla and Irm Herrmann).
- Love Is Colder than Death (1969) Made when Fassbinder was just 24, Love Is Colder than Death was his first feature and the first of 3 gangster films he made within a year, followed by Gods of the Plague and The American Soldier (both 1970).
- The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant (1972) Bitter indeed. In one of his earliest melodramas, adapted from his play, the titular fashion designer, who abuses her masochistic, mute maid, falls for a female model, and embarks on a relationship that seems doomed from the outset.
- Effi Briest (1974) Effi Briest was Fassbinder’s first film based on a period story, in this case Theodor Fontane’s 1896 novel, which he had wanted to adapt many years earlier.
- Fear Eats the Soul (1974) This love story – and despite the considerable human unkindness on show, this is definitely a love story – is a great starting point for newcomers to Fassbinder’s work.
His first feature length film, a gangster movie called Love Is Colder Than Death (1969) was greeted by catcalls at the Berlin Film Festival. His next piece, Katzelmacher (1969), was a minor critical success, garnering five prizes after its debut at Mannheim.
