About this product

Product Information

After portly German salt miner Schultze (Horst Krause) and his cronies are forced into retirement, the emptiness of their nowhere, smalltown-Germany existence becomes sadly apparent. The only bachelor in his circle, Schultze falls into a dull routine of playing accordion in a polka band, fishing, napping, and tending to his garden gnomes. Then a chance encounter with Cajun zydeco music turns his life around, a little. Soon he is cooking jambalaya for his pals and playing zydeco to the somewhat shocked denizens of his sleepy burg. When his friends arrange for him to be sent to the U.S. for a German folk festival, Schultze seizes the opportunity to visit the Louisiana bayou, and so his one chance at a wild adventure in life begins. Overcoming the language barrier through his hat-doffing, old-world charm, Schultze finds himself strangely at home in this new environment. SCHULTZE is a slow-moving but lovely little tale about facing mortality, and how the power of both music and human kindness can transcend borders and boundaries, no matter what one's age. Director Michael Schorr plays this--his feature film debut--in a wonderfully deadpan, minor key. The film manages to be deeply moving without ever resorting to standard "fish out of water" cliches or manipulative soundtrack cues. Krause is resoundingly authentic in the title role, and the various (actual location) landscapes are rendered with haunting, lyrical realism.

Received this amazing iconic David Lean film promptly, in good condition as advertised (better than good), and well packaged in a padded envelope for safe shipping. A great addition to my Oliver Twist collection. Played perfectly. Very positive buying experience and hope to buy from this seller again. Highly recommend!

  • German way of a fun, meaningfull & heartfilled movie

    I am originally from Germany and we 'Germans' have a 'different' way of being funny..... I think. This movie shows the 'average' Joe/German, breaking out of his dull, set life to go to Louisiana for his love of music. Germans are kinda 'tough' to accept 'change' and 'differences' but Schultze comes on as easy as it gets, not seeing any differences, just looking for the like minded music lovers in the African American communities of Louisiana. He fit right in ! As a German native, I got the little 'meanings' in all this and find this movie absolutely cool. My favorite part: When many of his Louisiana friends showed up for Schultzes funeral in Germany..... and the German (white) community was very surprised, yet overwhelmed by all the feelings shown from Schultzes American friends!

  • Good movie

    Long on visual communication and short on dialog. It is engaging and makes you think about it long after watching it.

  • This film gave me the blues.

    I'm sorry........I just can't get on board with the previous reviews. I was so disappointed......I thought I would see a German accordion player go to Louisiana and play some serious blues. The concept was great but the story just didn't kick into first gear.
