Schau'n Sie sich das an! 1965-1971
Vienna no longer has anyone like him: Karl Farkas. "Look at that!" was the leitmotif of his life. He was the only one of the postwar generation who could demonstrate how cabaret had been performed during the interwar period: primarily with Jewish wit, humor, and plenty of personality. Farkas became known throughout Austria through his legendary TV shows "Balance Sheets." His "Annual Balance Sheets" remained a television hit until his death. Among those appearing in the best Farkas shows are Ernst Waldbrunn, Maxi Böhm, Gerhard Bronner, Fritz Muliar, Otto Schenk, Ossy Kolmann, and Fritz Imhoff. The DVD "Look at that!" brings together the highlights from "Simpl" and TV's "Balance Sheets." A classic of intelligent humor from 1965-1971.
