Song of Songs was the first Marlene Dietrich vehicle not directed by Dietrich's "Svengali," Josef von Sternberg. The star plays a zaftig German peasant girl who becomes a nude model (anything to get her out of those ill-fitting 1890s costumes!)

Song of Songs was based on a Herman Sudermann novel, previously adapted into a stage play and then filmed twice during the silent era. Hal Erickson, Rovi
