  Netribution > Features > Interview > jessica hausner Lovely Rita
Gripping and intense, Lovely Rita is not be missed, however it is a spontaneous film with a lot of thought behind it and speaking with the director herself, the layers show careful planning and a calculated ambiguity revealing a contemporary film caught between generations, reality and satire, and passion and distance.
Rita, who is played by Barbara Osika and is mesmerising, is not able to communicate the way she would like and she is ostracized for it, but she is not just another girl with teenage angst.
Similarly, the school Rita attends is hardly a where Rita goes is hardly the repressive hell hole, of a repressed teenager, in fact Rita takes advantage of the understanding of her teachers to skip school.

 Kinoeye | Children in central European film
The girl Rita is shy and, like her mother, rather silent in a household dominated by an imposing, excessively orderly father.
Yet Lovely Rita is not explicit in identifying or denouncing proto-fascisms; this is one of the strengths of the film.
Emotions become thwarted, double-edged—the loving mother drives her daughter mad—and trust is dangerous: What seemed to be the Holy Virgin's response to an ageing woman's prayer for her lover to return, turns into a ghost's attempt to take her to hell.

 "Lovely Rita" (Austria)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Caught in a particularly awkward physical transition between childhood and adulthood, Rita is stuck with the kind of parents who are more concerned about her leaving the toilet lid up than they are about the fact that she's well on her way to becoming a first-rate juvenile delinquent.
Looking for love in all the wrong places, Rita, with her greasy hair and more than hint of a mustache, deals with all the rejection by going along an increasingly dark, boundary-breaking trajectory that leads to a seriously nihilistic but fairly predictable shocker of a conclusion.
"Lovely Rita" may lack originality, but Hausner's detailed depiction of suburban hell still has the ability to strike a shudder-inducing, universal chord.

George Martin, who was at first unimpressed by the band's demos, fell in love with the band when he met them in person.
Not only did he feel as though they had musical talent, but he felt that their wit and humor made them extremely "likeable." He did have a problem with Best however, whom he criticized for not be able to keep time.
Nonetheless, "Sgt. Pepper"'s release on June 2, 1967, was a high point both for the band and for all of rock music, for it was the first-ever concept album (built around a particular theme) and helped to launch what we know today as the "Classic Rock" format.

 BBC - Films - review - Lovely Rita
Shot on digital video and featuring amateur actors, Hausner's tale of a disaffected Catholic teenage girl may seem low-key and bland compared to Catherine Breillat's more forceful and graphic "A Ma Soeur", but it is a well-judged and sensitive portrayal of a pressured, superficial upbringing.
Uncertainly moving between childhood and womanhood, Rita (Osika) is a 15-year-old living in a Vienna suburb with her strict Catholic parents.
Disliked by her schoolmates, rude to teachers, and misunderstood by her parents, the wilfully rebellious Rita prefers to spend her time with a younger schoolboy - who she enlists to lose her virginity.
