"I wanted to rip it apart, put it on and bashed about on the keys", Goisern recalls in the film documentary Hubert von Goisern - Brenna tuat's schon lang.įrom this lust for destruction came a great love. For it was only once Hubert von Goisern had knocked back half a bottle of schnapps that his touched a hitherto despised gift from his grandfather: an accordion. Putting it into perspective, a youthful intoxication was to blame. Main-Netz 15th April 2015 | Text: Elena Koene, dpa Things don't get serious until next week: From 23rd April Brenna tuat's schon lang will be opening in one hundred German and Austrian cinemas. The two cabaret artists Hannes Ringlstetter and Stephan Zinner swapped ideas on how best to prepare for a show in the Bavarian province and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The production company and distributor invited guests to drinks and nibbles. "I was pretty excited, because we were going to meet with him", says Rosenmüller, "but then he didn't turn up, because he didn't want to do it."īut he was interested on Tuesday and celebrated with everyone else in the Oberangertheater. Rosenmüller tells that a long time ago he was nearly involved in a film project about Goisern by his film colleague Joseph Vilsmaier. Not least thanks in part to his Austrian co-producer Kurt Langbein.
Rosenmüller was on board straight away and then Hein learned how to produce a film too. "I came up with the idea of wanting to make a film about Hubert three years ago." The most difficult thing was then persuading Hubert. In the cinema it provides for great amusement and some things in the film are really entertaining, because Goisern can tell great anecdotes with a kind of dry laconicism that makes the stories even funnier.īeing celebrated is clearly not his thing though and his Munich manager and producer Hage Hein knows a thing or two about that.
They are clips from a TV show from the later eighties, in which Hubert von Goisern comes across a bit like a ski instructor party boy. And so he is also very happy with the result: "Even if there are a couple of things in it that I didn't necessarily want people to see." Rosenmüller, who made his debut as an opera director a few days before the premiere and on this evening he doesn't give the impression that he wants to fit in another theatre premiere, or start another film shoot in the next few days: "I'm very happy that there's peace a quiet for now." Goisern says later that he always had the feeling that he could trust Rosenmüller the whole time. Out of consideration for the filmmaker, he says, "I didn't get involved, because I know what I'm like". The Austrian musician Hubert von Goisern saw the 90 minute documentary film Brenna tuat's schon lang for the first time on Tuesday evening at the City Kino on Sonnenstraße. It wasn't exactly burning curiosity, but he was keen to see how his life would look on the big screen.
