Peter Alexander was THE ultimate Austrian legend. He could act, he could do comedy and he was able to sing like a nightingale. Until today he is the most legendary Austrian actor, no one will ever come close to him. He was an all-around talent.
This movie is quite funny, in all different kinds of aspects. It makes fun of the tourists, who crave Viennese and Austrian culture, it makes fun of our degeneration, our false past icons. It is critical to society in a very accessible and easy way.
Gunther Philipp is as excellent as always. But Peter is the real star in the film, the way he transforms into a woman is unmatched until this very day. He was sensual enough to do it in a respecitve style. I can only recommend this film. It is part of Austrian culture.
