The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant (English Subtitled)

This unforgettable dissection of the imbalanced relationship between a haughty fashion designer and a beautiful but icy ingenue--based, in a sly gender reversal, on the director's own desperate obsession with a young actor--is a true Rainer Werner Fassbinder affair, featuring exquisitely claustrophobic cinematography by Michael Ballhaus and full-throttle performances by an all-female cast.
