I have seen all the films by Douglas Sirk. They are magnificent… In them, I have learned to recognise that love is the best, most manipulative, and most effective instrument of social repression… My films Ali: Fear Eats the Soul, Martha, and The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant are melodramas, and in them I tried to incorporate what I learned from Sirk.
