\u201cSerenade for Two Spies<\/strong>\u201d (German title: Serenade f\u00fcr zwei Spione<\/strong>\u201c) is a mischievous kneeling before genre cinema and its intellectually relaxed reception, a kneeling before a cinema as has never been and tragically never will be in Germany, carried out with such fervour that it almost single-handedly compensates for this loss. What would our hero John Krim alias 006 say? \u201cI\u2019ve always known that I could do better than these Yanks. I just didn\u2019t have the chance to prove it!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Synopsis<\/span><\/p>\n

An international gang of gun dealers in the USA has stolen the prototype of a laser rifle from a German laboratory. The FBI agent Cormoran is being sent to recover the state-of-the-art and highly effective weapon. But there are some indications that he has defected to the enemy. Since agent 007 is currently on another mission, the chief of intelligence has to fall back on his second best man, the previous number 006.\u00a0And so the German secret agent John Krim is given the assignment to get the rifle back, find evidence of Cormoran\u2019s treachery and finally eliminate the colleague. Krim\u2019s journey takes him across the ocean, and there he experiences incredible adventures in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Two women get in his way, and Krim can\u2019t be sure whether he can trust them or whether they too are working for the other side.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Comments on the film<\/span><\/p>\n

“Michael Pfleghar does not even try to conceal what he is copying. 007 is mentioned by name several times – that there is not another Connery portrait on the corner table is all. One of the pretty companions is called Goldfeather and in San Francisco you see a Bond Hotel. The Goldfinger theme is played along with it, so that Aunt Erna can still hear it in the last series of movies.<\/em>(filmtipps.at<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

“This is it, the only true spy movie persiflage, if ever there was a truly witty, trenchant spy movie persiflage.”<\/em> (eskalierende-traeume.de<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

“Pfleghar investigates ironically and self-reflectively down to the last atom the mysteries of the Supergirls, Agents and Playboys”. (Hans Schifferle, m\u00fcncher-stadtmuseum.de<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

“Director Pfleghar uses every possible opportunity to demonstrate that he intended his second feature film to be a wacky persiflage on the James Bond films. So he hardly leaves out a gimmick or even the most absurd idea”. (wikizero.com<\/strong>)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
