	Effi Briest (1974)
		Effi Briest (Hanna Schygulla), a young girl of seventeen, still lives with her parents and behaves like a tomboy.
		Effi Briest feels almost like a rehearsal, where the cast are simply running through their lines without shading in the intricacies.
		Effi Briest is tough and impenetrable, its strands thickly packed together; if only there were a way to taste the film's lifeblood.

		Effi Briest: One's associations are connected not only with one's personal experiences, but also with what one has heard or happens to know.
		And it must be noted that as a film Effi Briest is slowgoing, static (as is to be expected) and dramatically flat.

	Effi Briest - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Effi Briest is the daughter of a nobleman in northern Germany.
		Effi, still practically a child, but attracted by notions of social honour, consents to living in the small Baltic town of Kessin, where she is miserably unhappy.
		Effi is finally taken in by her parents, and dies serenely at the estate of Hohen Cremmen, in a very symmetrical ending that matches the beginning of the novel.

	Effi Briest (1974) (Sub) on DVD
		Effi accepts her parents' wishes that she marry a man she doesn't know, and the marriage is considered to be socially and financially advantageous.
		Effi often glances at her reflection, and this exposes her humanity and vanity--both tragic flaws that contribute to her ultimate downfall.
		Effi Briest was so important to Fassbinder that he not only wrote the screenplay (which was customary), but in his extensive role as the offscreen narrator he literally became Fontane's voice, and sometimes even Effi's.

	Books \| From Prussia with love
		Effi Briest (1895) is the greatest work of Prussian realism and certainly one of the best tragic novels of the 19th century.
		When I first picked up Effi Briest more than a dozen years ago I was interested in its description of Prussian manners at a time when the local nobles or Junkers were coming to terms with the new German Reich.
		For the first and last time Effi curses them all, but in the end she is too much a part of the system herself: his code of honour is also hers, and it was she who broke the rules.

	Effi Briest and Nana: What is Worse, Adultery or Prostitution
		Effi Briest, which begins the sequence of events that lead to the discovery of Effi's adultery and her fall from grace and the life she has known.
		Effi Briest to lend itself as one proof to read the novel as influenced by naturalist thought, the role of environment presents an equally valid argument for such a reading.
		Effi Briest a work of poetic realism reflects the poetic aspects of the novel, whereas it is possible and legitimate to see it as a naturalist work at the same time.

	effibriest
		Even though Effi's the outdoor type and he's an art effete and she's somewhat afraid of him, she respects him as a man of culture, substance, reserve and good breeding, and agrees to the marriage after her mother says she will already have what a 40-year-old woman can only hope to attain.
		Effi gives birth to a daughter Annie and hires a lapsed Catholic, Ursula Strätz, to be her nanny and confidante.
		It leads to exposing how cruel Effi's society can be for those who break its rules, as her daughter is taken away from her and she's ostracized by society and forced to live alone in a boarding house.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Effi Briest at Epinions.com
		The Story: Effi Briest (Hanna Schygulla), a 17-year-old innocent and something of a tom-boy, agrees to marry Baron Geert Von Instetten (Wolfgang Schenck), a man twenty years her senior and on the rise as a Prussian diplomat.
		Effi accepts, despite the magnitude of the age difference, because she is socially ambitious and enjoys being pampered.
		Schygulla had been a regular in Fassbinder films, but after Effi Briest, she was so fed up with the beastly and over-exacting director that she refused thereafter to work with him for four years, but their reconciliation occurred in time for a brilliant return in The Marriage of Maria Braun (1978).

	IFC Center
		Effi, as played by the enchanting Hanna Schygulla, is all sunlit curls and radiant beauty, a combination of naivete, native intelligence, forthrightness, and willful self-interest.
		Fassbinder made EFFI BRIEST three years ago, and though I've no way of knowing for sure, I suspect one of the reasons he wanted to do it would be to show his critics that he was quite capable of putting his formidable talent to the service of someone else's work.
		It's in keeping that Effi, at wit's end toward the conclusion of the film, should say tearfully, 'Too much is too much.' She means 'enough is enough,' but she can't recognize the fact, thus to do something about it.

	Effi Briest and The Marquise of O..
		Effi is asked at the age of 17 to end her childhood by marrying a suitable, established, and ambitious man. He had courted her mother and her mother had then refused him for an older, more established, suitable rival.
		Effi’s mother manipulates her daughter skillfully into a position that she herself would have envied at Effi’s age: marriage to a man bound for success.
		Effi fears the noises upstairs in the house, which she believes, are the traces of the ghost of an exotic Chinaman who is buried in the town, exotic because of his nationality and his anonymity.

		Coming at the midpoint of his career, Effi Briest is one of Fassbinder's greatest, and most universally acclaimed films.
		Seventeen-year old Effi Briest is married to the older Baron von Instetten and moves into a house, that she believes has a ghost, in a small isolated Baltic town.
		Effi is lonely when her husband is away on business, so she spends time riding and walking along the shore with Major Crampas.

		Effi Briest is not the only Fontane title in print.
		I really wasn't sure that poor little Effi had actually been meeting Crampas until her love letters were turned up and left exposed by an inept servant.
		One of the arresting aspects of all this is how in the end Effi herself comes to believe that her husband was right to have cut her off the way he did.

	Jim's Reviews - Effi Briest
		In this image, note how Fassbinder creates a beautiful but telling emblem for Effi's married life: Cosseted behind a lace net, eyes downturned, sinking into a feather bed, sipping coffee – while her up-and-coming husband in a suit pontificates behind her, all the time trying to trick her into revealing her infidelity.
		Effi, motionless, looks distractedly ahead, as she so often does throughout the film.
		This is a world in which the human figures increasingly recede into the background, where outdoors they are obscured by branches and bushes, while indoors their rigid forms are framed in narrow doorways and reflected – constrained and meaninglessly multiplied – in a series of ever more elaborate mirrors.

	Teaching Literature at the First-Year Graduate Level: The Quantum Leap from Language to Literature (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Students speculate that a text with the title Effi Briest is about the life of a girl named Effi, about her inner or outer development, perhaps a biography, and that text entitled Unsühnbar is about moral and ethical issues of sin and expiation.
		Effi tells her friends that although she is reluctant to leave them, she has to go because the visitor is her intended.
		The rhythm of episodes in the social novel is predictable: the development of the triangle of Effi, Instetten, and Crampas and the movement toward closure (Effi's adultery and consequent punishment; Instetten's defense of his honor, which leads to the duel with Crampas and Crampas's death).

		Fontane's enchanting 17-year-old heroine, Effi, is married off to Geert von Innstetten, an austere, workaholic civil servant twice her age.
		With Effi Briest, Fontane brilliantly demonstrates the truth of his comment that 'women's stories are generally far more interesting.
		And in his humane, unsentimental portrait of Effi, who refuses to bow to convention, he offers us a reading experience that is at once touching and unsettling.

		Rainer Werner Fassbinder's film begins with young Effi Briest (Hanna Schygulla) recounting how her mother, though in love with a young man, married an older one with an established position.
		The gorgeous fl-and-white cinematography of Effi Briest captures the stark, stratified world of Effi's life; Schygulla's delicate performance expresses her sad and tender heart.
		Though the movie is perhaps too tied to the slow rhythms of the novel from which it was adapted, its elegant style and meticulous analysis of a rigid and hypocritical society has won great acclaim.

		Hanna Schygulla stars in this bleak Fassbinder drama as Effi Briest, a tomboyish seventeen-year-old German girl living with her parents.
		The film demonstrates not only Fassbinder’s usual superb technical control and ability to elicit superbly nuanced performances from his actors, but also an unprecedented affinity for literary adaptation and historical sensitivity.
