S. melodrama Bigger than Life since, as Mason and Matthau brawl, the television set pumps out bizarre carnival music). The most conspicuous reference to music’s should-be presence, however, occurs in a brief scene in which Peer Raben cameos as R’s old school friend. Raben plays the harmonica as R sings an old hymn (the one sung in Holy Whore). R’s pleasure from this musical memory is one of his few moments of clear joy. ”18 Peer Raben articulates something between the melodramatic and the utopian when he writes that music “supports something that isn’t yet in the image, nor in the mind either .
And if that function seems to adhere to the principles of standard film musical cuing (where music provides continuity during geographical or temporal dislocations), we have seen how contrived that continuity can be, as Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony in Maria Braun made clear. Elsaesser has made much of the layered, nonlinear temporality in Fassbinder’s work. This, I believe, is also evident in Raben’s music. Though a bogus indicator of linear space and time, it makes the more important point that history is necessarily intertwined with the present.
We can see how they thus operated on the periphery of both typical melodramatic form and the documentary modes of women’s filmmaking prevalent in Germany at the time. Some of these films focussed their critique on Germany of the 1950s, not a time of “miracles” for them, but, as the original title of Marianne and Juliane makes clear, a “leaden time,” when West Germany was returning to conventional gendered and sexed roles and the (re)formation of the German family and state. Finding a voice was important for these female directors, and its thematic and formal prominence in their films is not incidental.
