***mild spoilers*** This is an extremely stylized version of Camille, using operatic acting and sets, and absurd melodramatic techniques. Schmid was a colleague of Fassbinder, and uses many of the master's post-modern camera and performance techniques. For those who can appreciate the style, it's beautifully accomplished. If only Robert Taylor had dug up Garbo's corpse (it's in the novel)!
