Reviews
"This massive, admiring biography refutes the notion that Marlene Dietrich's femme fatale image was wholly the invention of director Josef von Sternberg. Bach, a film producer and author ofFinal Cut, who studied with von Sternberg, portrays the latter as a megalomaniac whose amorous frustrations with the star he had created drove him to maintain that she was a puppet who danced to his strings. Bach rejects the standard comparisons with Garbo as he plumbs Dietrich's special blend of erotic power, irony, and humor and limns a strong-willed woman whose innumerable sexual affairs satisfied a simple need for companionship. ... This engrossing biography is especially good on Dietrich's early career, her valiant anti-Nazi efforts, and her phoenixlike rebirth as a troubadour-actress."--Publishers Weekly, "If you open it to the right pages in the right mood, you can practically hear the applause still ringing."--New York Times Book Review, "Dietrich will never have a more meticulous, eloquent, or sympathetic biographer."--Times Literary Supplement, "Dietrich will never have a more meticulous, eloquent, or sympathetic biographer."-- Times Literary Supplement, "If you open it to the right pages in the right mood, you can practically hear the applause still ringing."-- New York Times Book Review, "Dietrich will never have a more meticulous, eloquent, or sympathetic biographer." -- Times Literary Supplement, "This massive, admiring biography refutes the notion that Marlene Dietrich's femme fatale image was wholly the invention of director Josef von Sternberg.
