Tally Brown, New York

May 04, 1979
Tally Brown, New York is a 1979 documentary film directed, written and produced by Rosa von Praunheim. The film is about the singing and acting career of Tally Brown, a classically trained opera and blues singer who was a star of underground films in New York City and a denizen of its underworld in the late 1960s. In this documentary, Praunheim relies on extensive interviews with Brown, as she recounts her collaboration with Andy Warhol, Taylor Mead and others, as well as her friendships with Holly Woodlawn, and Divine. Brown opens the film with a cover of David Bowie’s “Heroes” and concludes with “Rock ’n’ Roll Suicide.” The film captures not only Tally Brown’s career but also a particular New York milieu in the 1970s.

1919 – Dans le village de Schabbach, en Rhénanie, Maria s’éprend de Paul tout juste rentré de la guerre. Mais il la quitte subitement pour les Etats-Unis tandis que Maria, restée au village, élève seule leurs deux fils. Le XXe siècle, ses progrès techniques et ses grands drames – la montée du nazisme, la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la guerre froide – emportent dans leur sillage les destinées individuelles de la petite communauté rurale. Au début des années 1980, le cinéaste Edgar Reitz entreprend le projet fou de raconter l'histoire d'une famille de 1919 à 1982, dans un petit village de Rhénanie. Avec un engagement et un sens du réalisme hors du commun, il s’empare d’un sujet devenu tabou en son pays après le traumatisme de la Seconde Guerre mondiale : l’histoire de l’Allemagne au XXe siècle. Voici la première saison d’une série culte qui bouleversa le peuple allemand.
