After all the Jews left or were killed, Germany pre war cinema and theater almost died.
Now after all this years, it is rising again.
This film is an example of the new begining, for many Fassbinders to come and those who already are here.
Actors, actresses of this new generation will make many waves.
Look out.

another Fritz Lang please, but no more Leni Riefenstahl ( ! ) - grinagog 02:09:31 04/17/08 (4)
we don't want a repeat performance of "Triumph of the Will"
About time German cinema came back; I was pretty impressed with Der Untergang ( tho' Bruno Ganz is Swiss )
Perhaps there is a young Kinski and Herzog out there who will collaborate to give us some brilliantly mad films
I just finished the Alexanderplatz DVD and while it takes a while to get into Biberkopfs world, and he's an antihero it takes a lot to feel any sympathy for; it's a trip that's well worth taking ( a Masterpiece )
Yes: More German cinema, please!

    but a quick glance at the Net it looks like my kind of film, like a "Silverado" from the 1930's
    Lately the best of this genre I've seen is "Streets of Laredo" which is an adaptation of a Larry McMurtry novel and stars James Garner, Sissy Spacek, Sam Shepard and Randy Quaid as a *very* entertaining John Wesley Hardin
    Made for TV, but it's a real Gem
    Best!

  To hell with that bitch.
  
  Untergang- was an Hollywood in the pejorative sense, film.
  A bit as The Pianist.
  
  No wait there a lot to come and to look forth, I bet!
