So, 'Mein lieber Schatz' is quite the peculiar entry in the 80s drama landscape. It dives into this bizarre notion of mail-order children—yeah, you heard that right. It’s like a surreal take on family and procreation, juxtaposing the old ways with this eerie, almost cold, modern twist. The atmosphere is heavy, really pulls you in, with a pacing that feels almost dreamlike at times. The performances, particularly of Nabucco and Tusnelda, bring this strange concept to life, blending a sense of melancholy with absurdity. And then there's the surprising moment when they have a 'real' child, Don Giovanni, which shifts everything. It's distinct, unlike anything else from that era, and definitely leaves you pondering the implications long after the credits roll.
