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!Grins

d
but a quick glance at the Net it looks like my kind of film, like a "Silverado" from the 1930'sLately 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!
