There was a time for German stars in the 1950s with Curt Jurgens, Hardy Kruger, O. W. Fischer, and Maria Schell. That was a totally different generation. It all ended in 1968 during the big students’ movement in my country. It was an anti-authority movement that changed everything. All my country’s hierarchies, morals and values were questioned.

I don’t think there is such a thing as a German movie star. There are respected actors, but we are not publicized like TV people. Barbara Sukowa Read Quote
In Germany, of course, the Holocaust will always be in our history and a big stain on our lives. Barbara Sukowa Read Quote
I started to read labels around age 18 or 19. I don’t buy things that don’t sound like food, and I’ve been that way all my life. I do go through phases, during which I eat meat for maybe three months then don’t. I do eat lots of vegetables. It’s the same with dairy – I’ll eat it then stop. Barbara Sukowa Read Quote
