The Blue Angel

The Professor didn't have to come back but he found an excuse to see Lola again. When she offered him to stay, he didn't resist. The clown's constant appearance implied that this would be important in the next parts of the film. It turned out that the Professor would give up his career for Lola and be the clown from the beginning of the film. Him becoming a clown shows that he was seen as a joke to the people. It makes me wonder if the Clown from the scene we saw was also Lola's love and she moved on from him to the Professor. I noticed the Professor has always been sort of weak around Lola like she's taking control of him and he's under her shadow even though he has a high status in the movie as a Professor.
