Nineteen-year-old Liselotte Von Der Pfalz (Heidelinde Weis) falls for France's King Louis XIV (Hans Caninenberg) in this biographical costume drama. She marries the King's brother the Duke Of Orleans (Harald Leipnotz), which is a loveless union of political convenience. After Liselotte catches the eye of Louis, the Duke suddenly is passionate in his desire for her. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

Martha is a wealthy and totally self-involved woman -- so much so that on a trip during which her father dies, she does indeed cry, but only because she lost her purse. She marries a stranger who claims not to be at all attracted to her, and their wedding is only the beginning of a battle between them to determine who will get the upper hand over the other. Martha holds her own in this genuinely sado-masochistic relationship, until a tragic accident paralyzes her. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

This tale of intermingled love and hate is directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, and is the 13th of the 33 films he made in his short life. It explores the universal dynamics present in close human relationships, even lesbian ones. Petra Von Kant (Margit Carstensen) is a fashion designer. Some time ago, she divorced the husband she no longer loved. Until recently, she has been in a fairly satisfactory S & M relationship with her assistant. When she develops an obsession with her fashion model, however, things become far more complicated. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
