Der Blau Engel (The Blue Angel)

The Vintage Fair opens tomorrow bringing the grid back in time to a period of your choice. I love the 1920’s so chose to depict that decade first. Throughout the 1920’s Berlin was considered the cultural centre of Europe. The film Der Blau Engel starring Marlene Dietrich gives us glimpse into the cabaret scene in 1920’s Berlin, Germany. The risque film centers around The Blue Angel cabaret and Marlene plays Lola, a cabaret singer who ends up supporting her husband, who ultimately dies humiliated.  I decided to wander to the 1920’s Berlin sim to seek out one of the well known cabarets to shoot this image, but was immediately told I looked like a street walker who belonged in a brothel and was not welcome on the sim. Although the sim claims to depict the real life hustle and bustle (it was empty) of Berlin, the sim’s reality is one that ignores the cultural cabaret history of the time. So bloggers wishing to shoot a 1920’s scene on the sim, keep that in mind. It’s a shame this sim could not have collaborated with the annual Vintage Fair, it would have produced a series of awesome images on Flickr.
