Ramona is a German film game from 1961 by Paul Martin with Senta Berger and Joachim Hansen in the leading roles.

action

Ramona is a sought-after and attractive singer and dancer from the South Seas, who was hired for a German music revue and is to be highlighted as a big star. But the very young lady shows herself to be extremely capricious and one day leaves the contract and leaves the musical operators who wanted to get off to a great start in Berlin overnight. Now is "Holland in Need", and theater director Nannen as well as director Steinberg urgently need a replacement for Ramona.

The smart press officer Kroll has the saving idea: Why not incorporate some stranger into the number as the fake Ramona instead of the busted out real Ramona? A female no name with a desire for promotion and without airs is quickly found: the young up-and-coming mime Yvonne. Everything could go so well, if it weren't for the reporter Ellinor, who exposes the fraud and, out of jealousy, wants to expose the false Ramona. At the last moment, the real Ramona returns to the troupe, but only for the sake of her colleague Montez, who is the male star of the music revue.

Production notes

Ramona was filmed in the CCC studios in Berlin-Spandau from October 10th to November 1961 and, depending on the source, started in Germany on December 21st or 22nd 1961.

Wilhelm Vorwerg and Paul Markwitz were responsible for the film construction, Vera Mügge designed the costumes. Tutte Lemkow was responsible for the choreography. Erwin Gitt was production manager.

Ramona actress Judith Dornys was also primarily a dancer in real life.

The Dutch-Indonesian vocal duo Blue Diamonds also sings the theme song with which the two brothers had a big hit in Germany the year before (1960).

Reviews

Paimann's film lists summed up: “A story based on a well-known recipe, the reason for actually nice revue scenes, which, however, support them just as little in terms of action as the participants make the success of those they represent credible. Music worth listening to ... "

"Garnished with the usual ingredients of the genre, the film offers average entertainment at best."
