Die fromme Lüge

Mar 25, 1938
The stand-alone opera singer Carmen Casini dare not admit to her adult son, the spoiled race car driver Cecil, that she ruined her voice on a stormy day at the racetrack and that her career is thus at an end. Meanwhile, Cecil has fallen in love with the pretty Colette … without suspecting that her father, the wealthy Bartell, was a former lover of his mother and that he’s Cecil’s daddy. Thus, both Carmen and Bartell try to prevent the unfolding love-relationship between brother and sister, because this ain’t the Ozarks, you know! Only after the unhappy Cecil tries to commit suicide after an argument with his mother do Carmen and Bartell realize they still love one another. Suicide attempt be damned; let’s go out on a date! A movie that screams “Fun for the whole family.”

Pour le consul Karsten Bernick, homme riche et sans scrupule, une seule chose compte dans sa vie : son fils Olaf qui doit un jour prendre possession du chantier naval paternel. Johann Tonnessen, qui avait émigré vingt ans auparavant, quand Karsten s'était marié avec sa sœur, revient au pays. Il sent que son retour dérange et une conversation au sujet de Dina qui vit dans la maison du consul n'arrange pas la situation.
