The Culture Industry Needs Something Like Me

1976· 45 min· Documentary

An attempt at a psychological profile of Rainer Werner Fassbinder, who answers the author's questions about his artistic and personal development in a manner that is at times shockingly laconic. Excerpts from his film "Beware of a Holy Whore" document how much the life circumstances of his group of actors influenced the work of the director.

Cast: Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Hanna Schygulla, Peer Raben
