Nach Mitternacht

Interviewed for the 8 October 1981 edition of the teen-oriented German magazine Bravo, Desirée Nosbusch was asked whether she minded the film's on-screen nudity (several stills of her full-frontal exposure were helpfully included alongside the text). She replied: "That's all completely innocent. Why is there so much publicity just because of a short nude scene? I played it because I thought it was realistic and necessary for the plot. That's what matters." She had raised the topic with Curt Jurgens on her own television show: "Jurgens explained to me that you are allowed to undress in front of the cameras if you have the feeling that this undressing is important for the role and the story. I'm not posing naked, I'm just walking around like millions of girls do early in the morning."
