Dialog and acting are fast paced before a somewhat serious backdrop of marital infidelity, parental authority, and lust with considerable wordplay ("Klaghofer"; "my daughter is my lost son") and excellent cutting and performances. Wartime propaganda purposes are served by some sentimentality, a superficially harmonious ending, while explicit Nazi ideology is absent.[ citation needed ]
