You just want to switch off for a few moments? Remember your own youth - a time when everything was somehow simpler? Do you just want to bring a little light into the dark times? Then there is now a nice, but also very amusing and nostalgic way: The BRAVO archive opens its digital gates for free!
From 1956 to 1994, the first issue of each year is available here. There is a lot to discover. For example, the first year, when BRAVO was still a film and TV magazine and stars like Marylin Monroe or Karl-Heinz Böhm dominated the cover stories. Or 1969, when the BEATLES were the band of the year and Cornelia Greiner from Frankfurt was voted BRAVO GIRL of the Year. Or browse through the first issue from 1985, when the "Ghostbusters" hit the cinema, a TV broadcast of "Gone with the Wind" caused a stir and Duran Duran were given a star album. Travel back to 1992, when Roxette won the Golden Bravo Otto and the series "Beverly Hills 90210" adorned countless rooms as super posters.
It's not only a lot of fun to discover who used to make youngsters shriek, girls go into raptures and boys' heads spin. Even looking through the music charts of yesteryear or the television program from days gone by is surprisingly entertaining and brings back many fond memories. One can also smile about some advertisements, about the photo love stories and of course about the legendary enlightenment page of the Dr. Sommer team. While some of the questions asked by desperate teenagers are simply timeless and should also be of concern to today's generation, there are also problems to be discovered in the older issues, some of which are amusing, but some of which are downright frightening. So much for "everything used to be better in the old days".
It's just fun to click through magazines that you bought yourself at the time, or even to browse through older issues. A nice pastime in times of #WeStayAtHome! By the way, as a little extra you can download the complete E.T. star cut for free. Hach, simply wonderful.
