Review of Love Is Colder Than Death (1970) by Stella D — 13 Sep 2012
Fassbinder's first feature gets off to a difficult start showing perhaps a bit too much of his roots in experimental theater. however I was soon hooked into it's existential gangster narrative, with fassbinder himself playing a tough guy in his favorite leather jacket.
the bank heist at the end seems almost an afterthought. a kind of deconstruction of godard's 'bande à part'.
