franka potente played her roll brillantly. the bright red hair, the great high pitched glass shattering screams along with her dead set determination and attempt to save "mattie" was just wonderful and the constant high paced replays,and the music made it. i hope u do read this franka. a great modern german movie. thumbs up big time.

Franka you are a trully talented actor and deserve all the credit that comes your way. You are also absolutely beautiful which will see you get even better roles in the future unless those people at places like Hollywood are stupid enough to ignore such a talented actor.

Keep up the excellent work!!!
