Goodbye, Franziska (1941 film)
Goodbye, Franziska is a 1941 German romance film directed by Helmut Käutner and starring Marianne Hoppe, Hans Söhnker and Fritz Odemar.
It portrays the relationship between a globetrotting reporter and his devoted wife.
The film was remade in 1957.
After World War II, the Allied Forces banned the film from being shown in the German- occupied area because of its ending, which reminded the viewers to support the war effort.
Director Käutner was eventually able to convince officials that the propaganda sequence was in no way a reflection of his political ideology and was added at request of Nazi censors.
The remainder of the film was fairly apolitical, and, as such, it was brought back in circulation a few years later; the propaganda end sequence is not seen on current prints of the film.
It was shot at the Tempelhof Studios.
