very charming
progrbau29 August 2013
filmed entirely with a hand-camera this is a movie you like or you hate ... Rüdlinger plays Rüdlinger ... in a very convincing way. as in real life (then) he is together with a singing girl, driving across Italy ... they fight and they struggle. don't remember the story very well ... but the ambiance! in a little bar in a little town she gets a big bottle of alcoholic "sibylla". now she can handle winter and summer ... changing suddenly ... just spelling it. not a easy situation for the driver at her side :-) a funny fairy tale indeed.

in automatic translation from Wikipedia: Rüdlinger, the son of a leading cashier and a housewife grew up as an only child in protected relations. In his early Zwanzigern he rebelled against the middle-class life style, broke off the economic study and devoted himself to the play. He calls himself „free actor" what defines he himself as: „I am usually free." Since 1982 an often tumultuous cooperation connects him with the director Clemen Klopfenstein. From this cooperation come numerous of his films which were successful partly also after the Swiss borders. In Gemmi and The silence of the men Rüdlinger played side by side with the dialect rock singer Polo Hofer. Ironically he is convincing during his older years above all in middle- class roles, possibly than police chief (Strähl) or high-ranking officer (attention, ready, Charlie!). Rüdlinger traveled in 2010 with the solo piece Half-final through Switzerland in which he shows the Swiss footballer Geni Meier. For his role in The bird's sermon he was nominated as the „best principal character" with the Swiss film award in 2006. In 2007 he has published in the Zytglogge publishing company with the autobiography The right on memoirs his first book.
