Adaptations of German novels or plays are rare on German TV. Thanks to the "Friedrich Schiller Jahr" we get to see more this year. First, Haußmann is a genius - and has proved to be one once again with this adaptation of Schiller's well known play "Kabale & Liebe". August Diehl and Paula Kalenberg are perfectly cast as the tragic couple Ferdinand and Luise. The rest of the cast is brilliant, too. The music is beautiful, as are the pictures and the story is not at all dreary or awkward - it's exciting! This is a perfect adaptation. It will draw you in, make you love with Luise and Ferdinand, make you suffer with them and cry for them. Go and see it!
