All of Me |
(1990, 76 min) Country: Germany Director: Bettina Wilhelm Starring: Georgette Dee A smorgasbord melodrama of sexual orientations and lifestyles, All of Me follows the tangled sexual relations of a drag queen, his/her female wife and the attraction they both feel for a handsome young man. Orlanda (Dee) is a celebrated German nightclub performer in the torch song tradition of Marlene Dietrich. More androgynous than female, Orlanda doesn't look or act like the typical drag performer, especially when she/he sings tales of misplaced love with a glass of booze in one hand and a dangling cigarette in the other. Trouble brews for Orlanda and his new wife when, on their honeymoon, the both fall in lust with Hubert, a charming Polish admirer. They both do their utmost to attract the attention of the man. Not your unusual honeymoon scenario! A film that tries to answer the question of whether a gay transvestite can find happiness in the arms of a woman. |
