tonight i went with my friends and we watch in the movies a german movie called : The life of others...
it is a great movie of a new german director and it resembles with great success life in East Berlin during the communist time (80's)...it shows how the system of observation was working and how mistakes could happen, if there was somebody sensitive...
apart from the political representation of this difficult era and the relationship of nomeklature/politicians/art(conscriped or not), it shows an empty life of a sensitive person that found life and meaning in his work..and the work was to spy people and report..this guy obviously had a very lonely life and without meaning..he found the meaning when he entered in this weird way in the life of the couple, doing his best to help them and save them..from himself...
strongly recommended this movie, cause it has also some funny and humorous moments (especially the moment where the civil servant knows exactly all the types and sizes of all the typewriters that existed in East Gerany)..and it's about time to turn our back to Hollywood and to american film industry, since they turn to new productions and new ideas such as Rambo IV and Rocky VI..(it would be a great idea instead of sending John Rambo in Burma this time to fight the Pirates to send him again in Afghanistan to fight his ex-comrades, the Talibans, against the North Alliance which was supported by the Soviets at that time..)
anyway at least americans do this things only in their movies and not in real life, ha?
