If you loved Solange es Menschen gibt, try Was der Himmel erlaubt
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 both carry the bittersweet, outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Solange es Menschen gibt, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Was der Himmel erlaubt is
A 1950s melodrama about love that dares not check its privilege between a wealthy widow and her arborist beau. Her children and golf buddies at the club insist she knows her place. It soars like a weepie kite with a flawless cast.
