Jan Josef Liefers im Interview mit der Süddeutschen Zeitung über den Tatort Münster

SZ: Fast alle "Tatort"-Macher beschweren sich regelmäßig, dass immer weniger Geld und Zeit für die Dreharbeiten zur Verfügung steht. [...] JJL: [...] Die meisten Fernsehfilme sind [...] reine Auftragsproduktionen. Da ist alles vorher kalkuliert, auch ein kleiner Gewinn für die Firma. Am ersten Drehtag hat der Produzent sein Geschäft quasi schon gemacht. Theoretisch könnte es ihm völlig egal sein, wie gut der Film wird, jedenfalls aus wirtschaftlicher Sicht. Die meisten Produzenten, die vom Fersehen leben, bemühen sich trotzdem um hohe Qualität und opfern dafür oft genug ihre schmalen Gewinne. Aber ein wirtschaftlicher Anreiz, das zu tun, besteht nicht. SZ: Bedauern Sie das als langjähriger "Tatort"-Kommissar? JJL: Es ist auf jeden Fall schade. Der "Tatort" ist vermutlich das letzte Lagerfeuer der deutschen TV-Welt, um das sich immer noch zuerlässig viele Millionen Menschen unterschiedlichen Alters und unterschiedlicher Gesellschaftsschichten versammeln. Im Fall des Münster-"Tatort" handelt es sich noch dazu um eine Krimikomödie, da bräuchte man eigentlich erst recht etwas mehr Zeit, um immer das richtige Timing zu treffen. SZ: Ist beim "Tatort" bereits eine kritische Grenze erreicht, über die hinaus sich kaum noch sparen lässt? JJL: Soweit ich das einschätzen kann, ja. Es ist jetzt schon Knochenarbeit für die Crews, und das geht dann auf Kosten der Qualität. Vielleicht ist Ihnen schon mal aufgefallen, dass in TV-Filmen immer weniger passiert und immer mehr geredet wird? SZ: Allerdings. JJL: Viele Drehorte und viel Handlung kosten Zeit und Geld, Dialogszenen in einem Büro sind billiger. Und der Sparzwang hat auch massiven Einfluss auf die Drehbücher. SZ: Ein Beispiel, bitte. JJL: Im Münster-"Tatort" redet Professor Boerne von Haus aus immer schon viel. Der ursprüngliche Gedanke der Autoren war, dass man so eine Quasselstrippe einen wortkargen Typen wie Axel Prahls Kommissar Thiel gegenüberstellt, der Nebensätze ablehnt. Wenn der jetzt aber auch immer mehr quasseln muss, geht das zulasten seiner Figur und des odd couples, das ein wichtiger Aspekt des Erfolgs ist. Axel moniert das jedes Mal, zu Recht.

Den den ganzen Artikel kann man leider nur hinter einer Paywall lesen (X).

Geht es nur uns so oder tut es irgendwie gut, zu wissen, dass Jan und Axel durchaus auch Kritik an manchen der neuen Drehbüchern haben?

On the plus side, nothing has replied to me yet, which I am taking as a win.

Christian Friedel for Süddeutsche Zeitung

Detailed Explanation about the photos below the cut:

This is a famous column of the news paper where they ask actors to answer the questions only with facial expressions/ poses etc.

The 10 questions were:

1. You say about yourself that you have a “historical face”. Could you show us?

2. Going to a demonstration or staying home?

3. Your mood at the Berlinale?

4. What interests you of horror?

5. Since your first movie was The White Ribbon, how can you top that?

6. Private: Cinema or Netflix?

7. How does it look like when you go out fully?

8. You learned how to ride for The Zone of Interest. How do you feel on a horse?

9. What does an actor do to combat a growing ego?

10. How do you react when something does not go according to your plan?

Racing DNA: 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ

Some cars are not for everyone due to their value, yet they deserve to be mentioned because they are rare testimonies of a bygone era that can, now, only be perceived through black and white photos in certain books or specialized magazines. This Alfa Romeo Giulietta SZ for sale is a rare find, being one of only 169 units produced. Manufactured on January 27, 1961, it was sold to Sergio Sorbi’s…

Thoughts on Alternates of your family...for example if you saw a version of your daughter.

I would love to believe we are family in every alternate timelines, but things ain’t gonna go well at times.

I would embrace any of versions of my daughter with open arms if they needed me.

Plus, it would not be first time I “saw” an alt of us…

Fictober24 day 16 "No, I'm not ok."

(SZ belongs to @lythecreatorart )

Ves wakes up from one of her usual nap spots. Not many people on the massive question why she is napping in random places. It makes for interesting moments when they wake in random locations where they are sure they never fell asleep.

I know how you can sleep through nightmares if you're that interested.

"I think we are good with this method. I'll take your bad coping mechanisms later." Normally she only talks out loud to Zes in her room but she just woke from a nap. Her capacity to care who hears is very little at the moment.

It’s not that bad...is it?

Ves just sighed and did not even answer her partner. This time she just fell asleep in the prison. Well, at least she thinks this is the jail. She's pretty sure Ziib threatened jail a few times before. Though that usually involves throwing them in some pile of pillows with some shitty scary movie.

Holy shit. Even the jail is fancy. How do you know what counts as fancy jails? I like to call that an America fuck yeah moment. Your mexican… Mexican-American.

"Are you ok in there kid?" She didn't expect SZ to peek in on them. That man was very complicated to both of them. On one part Zes was very glad to be accepted when he guessed who she might be. However, that still could have been her life all along if she hadn't run away from the multiverse when she did.

Then with Gaz...it was hard to think of the man as dad. She did have a dad. Her version of Professor membrane wasn't a perfect dad but he was her dad. Gaz can admit now that she loved her dad. Her dad and her brother. Then she came back from space to find out her dad was dead as well.

"No I'm not ok but what else is new? Anyway, I'll break out of jail in a second.” The door wasn’t even locked. She just walks away with SZ as they hunt for something to eat.
