His delicate framing and work with character are on perfect display here in a film that doesn’t subvert the emotion of the source material so much as repurpose it with more anger and poignancy. Fassbinder takes the structure of Sirk’s melodrama and expands on it to comment on the racism simmering under the surface of West Germany in the ‘70s. His most accessible film, Ali is a moving masterpiece about a widow (Brigitte Mira) who falls in love with a young Arab man (El Hedi ben Salem). In remaking Douglas Sirk’s All That Heaven Allows (available on Criterion Blu-ray, but not on the channel no Sirk movie is on the service yet), Fassbinder came up with something entirely his own.
