the movie impressed me. it took my breath because i can imagine this to have been real. no space for warmth, no space for hope.

Not an easy film, sure, but it’s so worth it. This film will not be forgotten soon, it’s beautiful, and it makes you smarter.
don’t misunderstand …
don’t misunderstand my comment, I have seen some German movies, but anyone who has been in Germany would understand my comment. And don’t mess up with mr. Pooh

well, maybe your intelligence can only handle movies like titanic, scary movie or winnie pooh.

its so old but it is nice to watch this….
Exactly the …
Exactly the response one would expect from someone who probably has little to no knowledge of German cinema.
“Plattdeutsch” in …
“Plattdeutsch” in English means “low German”, and people did not generally speak low German in Northern Germany. For example around Hannover or Magdeburg people spoke high German.
And by the way the dialect of Vienna sounds different, too.
And there are still lots of differences between low German and English, believe me.
Bellissimo!
Bellissimo!
The film mixes …
The film mixes fiction and reality to an extent that it can be called an “essay” at best. The houses look northern German. The people behave like Calvinists. But they speak like people from Vienna (in Northern Germany nobody spoke high German at that time but flat German which is similar to English). this film will be forgotten soon. It simply shows people what they want to see. it works with clichees.
“The White Ribbon” …
“The White Ribbon” is a very sophisticated movie. Comparable to movies made by Ingmar Bergman or Lars von Trier. Only for intellectual “egg-heads”, thus.
BORING….what else …
