Nobody Loves Me Trailers

On the brink of her 30th birthday, Fanny feels the door to marital happiness closing on her. She is obsessed with death and even visits evening classes on dying, so it seems fitting that she encounters a skeleton in the malfunctioning elevator of her apartment building. The skeleton is her neighbour Orfeo, a Black, gay, self-declared psychic, who convinces her that she is about to meet "him". But is it really Lothar, the new yuppie apartment manager ...?

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
richard_sleboe It's hard to pinpoint exactly what makes this movie stand out, but stand out it does. Maria Schrader is very charming, but of course we already knew that. The same goes for Ingo Naujocks in the part of a budding painter with a death wish. Interesting take, by Pierre Sanoussi-Bliss, on the prototypical part of the sad clown. But most importantly, "Nobody loves me" is a very spiritual movie, and Maria Schrader's character Fanny is a very spiritual girl. She is what you might call an equal opportunity believer: ossified Christian saints, morbid new-age workshop gurus, and voodoo priests all get a chance to help her find prince charming. Eventually, the spell of loneliness is lifted by her shaman-in-residence. As soon as his mission is accomplished, he is promptly removed to heaven (Old Testament style) with a gold ingot in hand (New Testament style) to pay his space alien ferrymen (Greek-mythology-meets-Roswell-conspiracy style). The way writer-director Doris Dörrie makes the supernatural seem a natural part of everyday life will stay with you until well after the final curtain.
heavenly_surrender It's been years since i saw this film, but it left a lasting impression on me. It is so funny and cool. I really hope they release it on DVD with English subtitles because i don't understand German sadly.... I am (almost) willing to learn German just so that i can enjoy this film on DVD. It's that good :) The film is about this girl who is afraid to die, so she's taking a course preparing her for her death, and some strange vodoo man moves into her building. And if i remember correctly she's having an affair with her boss, or at least with someone who works with her, and it's a disaster... Her desperation and loneliness is easy to identify with, as well as her struggle for love and direction in her life.
madsully I love this movie. I first saw in in a very urban hotspot that offered bagels and coffee at 10 AM to those who love to view fine cinema on Wednesdays. The miserable Fanny, the off the wall Orfeo... the fact that everyone has that crucial bottle of champagne in the refrigerator. A must see only because we are all odd people, whether we feel lucky or not doesn't figure into the equation. Lonely, desperate, or just finding out why we tick and what we tick for. If you can, see it, please!
luke-38 "Keiner Liebt Mich" 1994 Is it fantasy, or romance? It is die deutsche Romantik. A mixture of both fantasy and romance; with humor, pathos, and a flawless cast of misfits. I can't recommend this movie highly enough. Shown as "Nobody Loves Me" on cable in my area, it is easily missed. But that would be your loss. Watch Fraeulein Fink's cynicism melt before your eyes, as she melts your heart. If I were only 20 years younger, I'd jump at the chance to offer her "eine Tasse Kaffee."
