Same, Leo. Same.

Women are evil and christianity is cool. Or so Flesh and the Devil tells me.
Typical American 1920s self-righteousness aside, one can see where each and every characters are coming from.
I am forever angry at Leo trying to strangle Felicitas, though. That bit was brutal.
One thing you'll see in hardcore Veidt girlies is that, once you experience Die Veidt (TM), you are pratically immune to everything that is remotely sensual. Nothing can top him (this sentence is hilarious). And yes, that man is made of sensuality and bones. If you've been here long enough, you know how I feel about him.
Anyway, I howled at the screen every time Greta Garbo and John Gilbert were doing whatever this. (Not seen here, that cigarette scene)

(Also not seen here, the homoeroticism between Leo (that would be Gilbert) and Ulrich (Lars Hanson). They're bi4bi.)
Another film that could be solved with polyamory.
EDIT: Last Night in Soho. First half is ace. Great representations of the horrors of being a woman and the romanticisation of the past. Second part threw it all away for psycho-biddy shtick. The eleventh Doctor and Emma were there.
