Marianne Sägebrecht

Shortly after being discovered by director 'Percy Adlon' (qv) in a 1977 production of "Adele Spitzeder", 'Marianne Sägebrecht' (qv) was cast as Madame Sanchez/Mrs. Sancho in the Director's TV special _Herr Kischott (1980)_ (qv), a spin on "Don Quixote". Eventually, the actress became a muse (for lack of better term) to Adlon and consecutively starred in leading roles in several of the Director's films, one of which garnered Sägebrecht commercial success: the performance as Jasmin Münchgstettner, a woman who mysteriously appears just to bring luminosity to the old, beaten down, and spiritually deprived Bagdad Café in, _Bagdad Cafe (1987)_ (qv), earned her a German Film Award.::Anthony ([email protected])
