Hildegard Knef
born 28 dec 1925 / died 01 02 2002
Hilde was one of the most strong & unsuitably women
she did never what was expected to do, she did, what she thought that is worth to do
she was true to herself, to the world
she started as an actor but reached the top of her expression later
in the ripe years of her life mainly as song writer & chansonier
she sung about her experiences with life
as woman, as actor, as a stubborn, incovenient character & simply as a human
even now, after her death can her life, her struggle with many dangerous diseases &
her straight out way be a guidance for those among us,
who're searching for the "right" sort of life & are going lost by good ment contradictory recipes
Hilde was weak & powerful at the same time, true even
