WHAT’S YOUR FASSBINDER RELATIONSHIP STYLE?

A quiz that uses the bad boy of 1970s cinema to help you navigate love

The late Rainer Werner Fassbinder was many things. Raging art monster? Check. Human cocaine grinder? Check. Fedora trailblazer? Check. But above and beyond everything else he put love at the center of his films, in all its expressions and mutations.
