MoL sent Agent S. to Berlin on a mission. Agent S., who has been deep-cover for years, was briefed cold-war style, on a need-to-know basis only, wasn’t even told there was no longer a wall. Agent S. was instructed to come back with the Fassbinder cans or take the cyanide pill. Agent S. probably wasn’t even born when RWF died. Fassbinder had wanted to be fat and famous on the cover of Time magazine; fat chance. At his last Cannes film festival (1982) before he died he spent 20,000 DM on cocaine and as a result had to sell off part of the distribution rights for his next film which was to be called I Am The Happiness of This World. The last time MoL mentioned his name to anyone the person addressed thought the reference was to the actor and his name was being pronounced wrong.
