Billy Wilder, Friedrich Holländer and Marlene Dietrich have numerous things in common: all of them were born at the turn of the century, and they all spent their youth in Berlin. They all were successful artists, when the sound era in movies began – and all of them emigrated to the USA after Hitler’s seizure of power.
In 1948, they returned to Berlin together for the shooting of „A foreign affair”. Friedrich Holländer composed the soundtrack to the movie, Billy Wilder directed it, and Marlene Dietrich starred as the lead.
The movie is a black humoured satire on the coexistence of Germans and the Allies in the occupied post-war Berlin. Marlene Dietrich plays an unscrupulous, opportunistic Nazi singer. Dietrich sings the song „The ruins of Berlin” in German as well as in the „occupants’” languages: English, French and Russian.
