If you loved Was der Himmel erlaubt, try In den Wind geschrieben
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Douglas Sirk, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Was der Himmel erlaubt, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What In den Wind geschrieben is
Here's a melodrama that really commits. A geologist finds himself embroiled in the affairs of a Texas oil family and the unrequited desires swirling around them. Eventually someone gets accused of murder, as they do. It's hard to say if anyone emerges happy.
