The Blue Angel Page #4

Synopsis: Germany 1924. Middle aged Dr. Immanuel Rath is a literature professor at a boys college. Most of his students don't much like him, often calling him "unrath" - German for garbage. Dr. Rath learns that many of his boys often frequent a cabaret called Der blaue Engel - the Blue Angel - which he believes is corrupting their impressionable young minds. He heads to the Blue Angel himself to catch the boys in the act and shame them into not going again. Over several visits, Rath is able to catch the boys, but in the process he also understands what attracts the boys, namely the headlining performer Lola Lola. Rath falls under Lola's spell, he who falls in love with her - and she seemingly with him - so much so that he wants to marry her and give up his teaching career to be with her on her travels from cabaret to cabaret. Their relationship ends up not being what either envisioned, the question being how they will both deal with their disintegrating relationship and the reasons behind that d

I know I'm through!

I can't stand it anymore!

Get me my stockings.

Quickly, quick!

My curling iron!

It's too hot!

Well, Professor,

how are we today?

How about a cigar?

Havana...

You seem to be in an especially

good mood today, Director.

I am!

But you should be, too.

Leave him alone.

Stop making fun of him!

Be quiet!

Your husband is to become

a big attraction!

Here. Contract.

Settled by wire.

And where?

In the "Blue Angel"!

- "Blue Angel"?

- Yes.

Back to your old hometown.

Think Professor.

Professor Immanuel Rath!

Never!

I won't go back!

You'll change your mind.

I'll never change my mind!

O really?!

For five years you've supported

that good-for-nothing...

and now that he can make a living,

he says no.

Stop it! He'll go.

I won't go!

Tomorrow morning. 9 o'clock.

We leave!

I can't go! I won't go!

I can't go...!

Don't get excited.

No! No!

Do with me what you want...!

That's something I won't do...

You won't have to go...

No! No! No!

I won't go!

I won't go!

Never!

Personal appearance of

Professor Immanuel Rath

Gentlemen!

Please go home quietly!

Everything is sold out!

This is the most important moment of

your whole career.

If everything goes well,

you're a made man!

Gala in Berlin,

perhaps London,

Tinsel!

Hippodrome, New York!

That's enough!

You want to get him all worked up!

We're at the "Blue Angel".

Don't be a killjoy!

And what do you think you're doing?

Do something useful...

Where's the nose?

The nose?

Yes, the nose!

Where did it go?

Chairs... more chairs!

Chairs! Are there any more chairs?

Standing room only!

Don't get excited, Mister Professor!

Don't get excited!

Be calm! Please! Oh, wonderful...

He's right.

Keep cool like I am...

Just don't get excited!

Don't let yourself get nervous!

Just watch me!

You'll be alright!

Great night for you!

Put it over!

When I see a beautiful woman,

it is a moi.

That is my reputation.

What's wrong?

Why the long face?

Every time I feel good

you stage upon the action!

A little domestic affair?

Ahh...!

Don't be sad!

Be like me!

Adelbert Mazeppa,

the strong man.

Better say goodnight,

that's your third cue!

A little drink?

Voil!

Your husband is very crazy.

He's mad!

Where are you hiding?

What's wrong with you?

Come on stage then!

Lola, come down!

I will not go on!

What's wrong with you now?

You can't cut a month of business!

A minister first class...

What happened to you?

Are you mad?

You've got to go on!

Put on his wig!

What do you say?

You don't want to go on?

- Of course...

- Are you crazy altogether...?

- Leave it to me...

- I won't have any of this stuff...

Go out!

And quickly!

Where's the professor?
