A girl named Rosemarie (das Mädchen Rosemarie, Germany, 1996)

I found this film really interesting, although I was not expecting much of. At the end it surprised me with its plot twists and ending. This is based on a true story about a girl (guess what her name is... Rosemarie) who instead of going to school decides to trick old rich guys, sleep with them, and take their money away. She becomes quite famous in the post-German business circles in Munich, as a prositute, and a very classy and chic one, by the way. With the help of a French businessman, Rosemarie records private conversations of some businessmen where black mailing and smuggling are concerned. At the end of the movie, she falls in love with the French guy, and threatens him to destroy the tapes if he does not marry him. The small problem is that he is already engaged. This all ends in a tragedy for Rosemarie, but I should not give away the ending. Director Bernd Eichinger has done a good job in telling the story in an interesting way, so that the two-hour-long film goes by pretty fast.
