Reminder Notes

"Stoßgebet für meinen Hammer" is not pornography. It is . It represents a distinctly German tradition of Derbheit (robust, coarse humor) that runs from Karl Valentin through to Gerhard Polt.

Billian was a craftsman. He understood that audiences in 1970 didn't want a lecture; they wanted to giggle at a woman losing her towel and a man hiding in a closet while his trousers are on fire.
