Bagdad Cafe 4K 1987

In fact, it's such a touching film that I, a forty-year-old man, had to hold back my tears throughout the entire film...

Of course, Frau Jasmin (I won't even try to pronounce her German surname) is the embodiment of European etiquette (!). In general, she is such a charming woman that she is able to tame even an American “chatterbox” like Brenda. By the way, I wondered for a long time where I had seen this charming African American woman before. It's CC Pounder, Ernestine from “If Tomorrow Comes.” So Brenda is a mother of two (or maybe three?) children, whose life consists solely of keeping the cafe (finally buying that new coffee maker), the motel, and her children in order. She encounters Jasmine, a German woman who has arrived without warning from a practically deserted highway. At first, their relationship doesn't work out. And that's natural. Frau Jasmine seems like an alien to Brenda... Strange temper, men's clothes in the room. It's time to call the county sheriff. But that's not what happens.

But people are people after all. Brenda, despite her crazy... impulsiveness, still finds common ground with Frau Jasmine, to the delight of both. Plus, Frau Jasmine finds her soul mate in one of the guests at Brenda's motel.

Overall, the film is very captivating. There are many relationships between people, and a lot of positive energy in Frau Jasmine. I can't even describe my attitude towards her. Admiration is the first epithet that comes to mind. And what other attitude can a woman with a charming hat with a feather on her head and a lot of brains inside evoke?
