The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant 1972

The original title of the film is Die Bitteren Tränen der Petra von Kant.

Typical Fassbinder heavy dialogue and elegant camerawork. The film deconstructs female relationships through a mesmerizing performance by Margit Carstensen. The framing and focus pulls are exceptional considering it's a 2 hour film shot in one room. von Kant spirals into despair as certain relationships explode, but the final scene is beautiful.
