Has anyone seen this 1980's German masterpiece?

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

It's a classic film exposing the greed of 1980's corporate culture cleverly disguised as a simple-minded American action movie. I actually saw it dubbed into English, colorized and without the live orchestra accompaniment (which, of course, only hinted at the genius of the original artistic vision).
"Sterben Sie Hart" is the story of a group of East German terrorists who attempt to rob the vault of a Japanese corporation doing business in a Los Angeles high rise. So it's not only German, but it's got that Japanese thing going for it too. The film is entertaining, yet very disturbing at the same time. It reminds me of the numerous great unknown Czech, Polish and Italian films from the 30s that I claim to have seen. It's vastly superior to that crap that infantile Americans pay money to see, and it gives me great satisfaction that having seen it allows me to know that I am a discerning cineast.
