Angela is a 1995 film, Rebecca Miller's directorial debut. It won awards at the Sundance Film Festival, the Brussels International Festival of Fantasy Film and the Gotham Awards.
This film is the story of a young girl and her quest to "purify" herself. Angela (Miranda Stuart Rhyne) is a 10-year-old girl trying to cope with a dysfunctional family. Her parents are former performers who have resigned themselves to the loss of their dreams. They are now having problems in their relationship. Her mother Mae (Anna Thomson) has drastic mood shifts that bring her from manic happiness to utter misery. Her father Andrew (John Ventimiglia) tries to hold everyone together, but Mae's vacillations are becoming more than he can manage.
Angela tries to cope by inventing an imaginary universe of 'order' for herself and her little sister. Left to figure out everything for themselves, she grabs at scraps of religion, superstition, and fantasy to try to make some sense out of the world and understand the difference between good and evil.

Genres: Comedy, Drama,Manchmal bist du fast zu schön
dass die Leute mich nicht sehen.
Doch unterm Strich
an und für sich
lieb ich dich
lieb ich dich.
Manchmal bist du gar nicht komisch
ganz schön launisch
fast schon chronisch.
doch unterm Strich
an und für sich
lieb ich dich
lieb ich dich.
Refrain:
ANGELA
alles in allem find ich's wunderbar
Du hast den Voodoo und so
werd' ich Dir blindlings folgen
bis ins Herz der Welt.
Oh
oh ANGELA
Du liebst den Reggae
ich den Cha-Cha-Cha
Trotz aller Gegensätze
sind wir wie Pech und Schwefel
und alles das zählt
das zählt.
Manchmal bist du richtig streng
und siehst alles etwas eng.
Doch unterm Strich
an und für sich
lieb ich dich
lieb ich dich.
