Transcription

Hey! Hey. I'm sorry I'm so late. No, no, no, don't worry about it. The party small enough? Yeah sure, just, you know, don't wake the baby. She, she is sound asleep so. Hi. Hi. Hi, you close the deal? That's D.O.A. You sound defeated. No, it's just a mess right now. I've never seen you give in before. I'm not. Fred's associate wants a bribe. Well that's a first. Maybe, I'll let him play it out. You know, set a trap tomorrow. Nice business you're in. Business is not nice. So, all caught up plus a little extra to say thank you. Gracias. April has a cold and a little fever. How high? One-hundred. I think maybe I should call the doctor. I wouldn't. Um, how's your sister? She's improving. She's, she's not comfortable being a mother. She has been struggling. I would hate for April to have an accident. I really love that child. Is this something you've seen before? Yes. I'll see you tomorrow morning. Yeah, see you tomorrow. Marta, I really appreciate your help. Guess who? I give up. Hey. Hi. Drunken McDrunkerson. That's Drunkerstein. Hey. Hi. Good Morning. No it's not. It is for you. You have to wake up. Oh no, it's not fair. Hey, what? What's going on? Nothing. No, no what's going on? Talk to me. Just the usual suspects. You know, Katie, my mom, April, work it's - A little vulnerability, all right. Yeah well. It's nice. It's ok, it's all right, yeah. It's ok Take two. Oh this is definitely a take two. That's my lucky number. She has a cold, a fever. Go to her. Go, go. No it's better if I don't. That doesn't make any sense. The blogs say that If I go in every time she cries then she'll learn to cry to get me to come in. Isn't that what mothers have done for centuries? But that's not what they tell you to do now. Oh, so we know better now? Maybe. Maybe not. Well, this is all so sudden. I mean you've never showed any interest in children before. I've never really had an interest. You like April? She's my sister's child. Yeah, you like her. No I don't. You do. No I don't. A lot. She's just so tiny, and alone. Well, well, well, those hormones are kicking in, huh? No, they're not. So what happens when your sister gets better? Leaves the hospital? I don't know. Go to her. Go! It's 101.5. No, I gave her Tylenol but - Should I bring her in? Yeah, she's sleeping ok. Yeah, every four to six hours. Alright, but how high of a fever before I should bring her in? Ok, thank you so much. Katie, hi. Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's wrong? She's afraid that she'll never want to leave if she stays much longer. So, she wants to leave now? It's counterintuitive. She's very frightened. Did you tell her that it's better for her, better for April if she rests for a while, before she comes back home? Of course, and I want you to tell her that as well. To reinforce the importance of her getting better. Me? Yes. She doesn't. Yes, she's concerned that you will take the baby away from her. I won't. I know that's not the case, but she's been expressing those feelings. And she has also said that she's afraid someone's trying to harm her. Is there anyone who might want to harm your sister? Not that I'm aware of. Where's the father of her child? Paolo. In Europe the last time I asked her. Did they have an amicable break up? It wasn't a relationship. More of a tryst. He has no interest in the child. He claims she tricked him into getting her pregnant. He's never even seen April. Let's, let's go talk to her. You need to reinforce that it's in her best interest and April's, that she rests up and recuperates. Oh great, okay, I'll be right back. Hi, Katie, I'm with Dr. Anderson at the hospital near your room. No, I left April at your apartment with Marta. You asked me to come over here and see you. She has a little sniffle. Temperature, yeah. 103. Tylenol. I did wash my hands. I did use bottled water in the formula and I did clean the house. If it doesn't go down, I will take her to see Dr. Pagano. Katie, Marta doesn't hate you. Okay, I promise not to leave April alone with Marta if you promise to take your medications. And talk with Dr. Anderson. Deal? Deal. Can I come see you now? Ok. I'll come back tomorrow and we can visit. Ok, hun. She said she doesn't want to see either of us right now. She just wants to close her eyes and forget. Everyday she should improve. Should? Yes.

Plot

During the Great Depression, a rich businessman named Brinkmann decides to sink his ship, Anna Susanna, in order to collect on the insurance. He orders its captain, Kleiers, to sabotage it while at sea. When Kleiers carries out his instructions, he is spotted by several sailors and passengers. The captain is killed in the ensuing fight, but not before he manages to shipwreck Anna Susanna. Only a handful of people survive. After they return home, they discover that Brinkmann's insurance fraud worked and he was compensated. They sue him at court and manage to have him indicted.

Cast

Production

During 1952, as the government control over DEFA tightened, the studio produced only six films, all of them influenced by the Cold War and dedicated to the ideological struggle between capitalism and socialism. Anna Susanna was one of those.[1] Although the film had a plot suiting the government's policy, the DEFA Board was very reluctant to allow Richard Nicolas, for whom the picture was his debut as a director, to make Anna Susanna. Nicolas had threatened to resign if he would not be allowed to direct it, and was eventually granted permission.[2] The film was also noted for being one of the first DEFA pictures to employ primitive special effects, such as building a miniature ship model that was wrecked in an aquarium.[3]

Reception

Heinz Kersten quoted an East German official who told that "the times in which pictures like Anna Susanna, that damaged the image of DEFA in the eyes of the people... should not return."[4] The West German Catholic Film Service described it as "rather well-developed, thrilling crime film... but filled with typical criticism of the capitalist system."[5]
