What happens

Degree of Murder (German: Mord und Totschlag, French: Vivre à tout prix) is a 1967 West German crime drama film directed by Volker Schlöndorff and starring Anita Pallenberg, Werner Enke and Hans Peter Hallwachs. The film is mainly known because of the soundtrack composed by Brian Jones (founder and multi-instrumentalist of the Rolling Stones), Pallenberg's boyfriend at the time. The film won three German Film Awards. Part of the New German Cinema movement, it was entered into the 1967 Cannes Film Festival. It was filmed in Eastmancolor in West Germany in 1967.
