My tribute to the films of Douglas Sirk, still considered the maestro of 1950s woman's melodrama. Had his films not featured such a loving streak for his characters despite their naivite to the shallowness of their world, the word "melodrama" would've been much more vulgarized.
Films used:
Magnificent Obsession
Written on the Wind
All That Heaven Allows
There's Always Tomorrow
The Tarnished Angels
Imitation of Life
Music: "Autumn in Connecticut" by Elmer Bernstein from the soundtrack to FAR FROM HEAVEN, Todd Haynes' own loving homage to Sirk.

The largest Douglas Sirk retrospective in New York City in decades runs December 23 - January 6 at the Film Society of Lincoln Center. More info: http://filmlinc.org/sirk
Trailer by Zach Clark.
When Douglas Sirk retired from American filmmaking and returned to Europe at the end of the 1950s, his reputation was that of a director who simply churned out glossy Hollywood weepies. But after a major critical reappraisal, spurred by the critics of Cahiers du Cinéma, the German-born filmmaker was reclaimed as an auteur with a varied body of work, an eye for visual stylization, and a sophisticated understanding of Brechtian artifice, not to mention one of cinema’s greatest ironists.
Long before his iconic melodramas of the 1950s, Sirk began his artistic career in post-WWI Germany as a theater director, under the name Detlef Sierck. By 1935 he had transitioned to motion pictures, but despite his early success, the menace of the Third Reich chased him and his Jewish wife to France, the Netherlands, and eventually Hollywood, where he would direct nearly 30 feature films.
Though Sirk worked on everything from musical comedies (Slightly French) to war films (Battle Hymn) to 3-D Westerns (Taza, Son of Cochise), his self-reflexive visual style and measured compositions—particularly in his later domestic melodramas—today suggest a sharp, socially conscious artist observing Eisenhower America from within the culture industry’s most popular medium, tackling topics including racial identity, religion, sexual repression, and familial relationships.
Sirk’s oeuvre has become a model for a critical cinema that subversively passes as straightforward entertainment. This retrospective, the largest in New York City in decades, tracks his artistry from his early German films through to his early Hollywood forays into multiple genres and on to the now-canonical works of his late career.

Douglas Sirk is usually credited as being the co-director of Bourbon Street Blues, his final film from 1979. Even with this being the case, it still feels very much like one of his late-period melodramas, except the action transpires in a run-down apartment building rather than the pastel world of 50s suburbia. The film concerns an alcoholic, cockroach-fearing tenant who has failed to pay her rent and the argument that ensues between her, her landlady, and another resident of the building (played, very impressively, by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, an early known champion of the director). In true Sirk fashion, the scene, through several emotional monologues, evolves into a bittersweet parable about losing sight of your dreams and finding solace through an imagined reality. It feels like a strangely appropriate conclusion for a director who ended his career at what was, arguably, the height of his artistry.

Douglas Sirk (born Hans Detlef Sierck; April 26, 1897 – January 14, 1987) was a Danish-German film director best known for his work in Hollywood melodramas in the 1950s.
Sirk was born Hans Detlef Sierck in Hamburg, Germany to Danish parents. He was raised in Denmark, but later moved to Germany as a teenager. He spread his education over three universities. He started his career in 1922 in the theatre of the Weimar Republic, including the direction of an early production of The Threepenny Opera. He joined UFA (Universum Film AG) in 1934, but left Germany in 1937 because of his political leanings and Jewish wife. On arrival in the United States, he soon changed his German name. By 1942 he was in Hollywood, directing the stridently anti-Nazi Hitler's Madman.
He made his name with a series of lush, colorful melodramas for Universal-International Pictures from 1952 to 1958: Magnificent Obsession (1954), All That Heaven Allows (1955), Written on the Wind (1956), and Imitation of Life (1959). But it was at the pinnacle of his high-profile accomplishments as Universal's most successful director that he left the United States and filmmaking. He died in Lugano, Switzerland nearly thirty years later, with only a brief and obscure return behind the camera in Germany in the 1970s.

When Douglas Sirk retired from American filmmaking and returned to Europe at the end of the 1950s, his reputation was that of a director who simply churned out glossy Hollywood weepies. But after a major critical reappraisal, spurred by the critics of Cahiers du Cinéma, the German-born filmmaker was reclaimed as an auteur with a varied body of work, an eye for visual stylization, and a sophisticated understanding of Brechtian artifice, not to mention one of cinema’s greatest ironists.
Long before his iconic melodramas of the 1950s, Sirk began his artistic career in post-WWI Germany as a theater director, under the name Detlef Sierck. By 1935 he had transitioned to motion pictures, but despite his early success, the menace of the Third Reich chased him and his Jewish wife to France, the Netherlands, and eventually Hollywood, where he would direct nearly 30 feature films.
Though Sirk worked on everything from musical comedies (Slightly French) to war films (Battle Hymn) to 3-D Westerns (Taza, Son of Cochise), his self-reflexive visual style and measured compositions—particularly in his later domestic melodramas—today suggest a sharp, socially conscious artist observing Eisenhower America from within the culture industry’s most popular medium, tackling topics including racial identity, religion, sexual repression, and familial relationships.
Sirk’s oeuvre has become a model for a critical cinema that subversively passes as straightforward entertainment. This retrospective, the largest in New York City in decades, tracks his artistry from his early German films through to his early Hollywood forays into multiple genres and on to the now-canonical works of his late career.

Douglas Sirk is usually credited as being the co-director of Bourbon Street Blues, his final film from 1979. Even with this being the case, it still feels very much like one of his late-period melodramas, except the action transpires in a run-down apartment building rather than the pastel world of 50s suburbia. The film concerns an alcoholic, cockroach-fearing tenant who has failed to pay her rent and the argument that ensues between her, her landlady, and another resident of the building (played, very impressively, by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, an early known champion of the director). In true Sirk fashion, the scene, through several emotional monologues, evolves into a bittersweet parable about losing sight of your dreams and finding solace through an imagined reality. It feels like a strangely appropriate conclusion for a director who ended his career at what was, arguably, the height of his artistry.

Aspiring actress Lora Meredith meets Annie Johnson a homeless black woman at Coney Island and soon they share a tiny apartment. Each woman has an intolerable daughter, though Annie's little girl Sarah Jane, is by far the worse. Neurotic and obnoxious, Sarah Jane doesn't like being black; since she's light-skinned (her father was practically white), she spends the rest of the film passing as white, much to her mother's heartache and shame. Lora, meanwhile, virtually ignores her own daughter in a single-minded quest for stardom.
