Why are German films often so formulaic even though Germany is a European culture? I love them but they follow formula very closely like Hollywood. What are the best German films?

I have seen some very good German movies. It is not that they don't exist, but they hardly ever achieve much fame. Especially since people have been accustomed to the dominance of US popular culture.

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

What is of absolutely horrible quality is the “movies” that are produced for TV. They are famously bad.

Do you agree with Kamala Harris that Donald Trump is dangerous?

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

And many I can't think of at the moment.

How were cows used in ancient India?

Here is a list of some (by no means all) German movies that are considered Classics (and a few that should be, in my opinion):

Das Haus in Montevideo

Besides these, there are some really good children's movies: More recently, the Bibi und Tina series as just one example. Looking back into the 80s and 70s, as well as into the present, I would even say that movies for children are what the German Film industry excels at. There is much less screaming and cake throwing and slimy monsters and much more discussing of matters that affect children in real life (even in phantasy plots) than in most US children's movies as far als I know them. The GDR was particularly well known for excellent children's movies but the west was and is good at it, too.

To a flat Earther, what's wrong with the idea that gravity is simply a force inherent to space which operates only in one dimension? Why do they go further and try to deny gravity rather than just saying it's different than physicists claim?

Lola rennt

In Wirtschaftswunder times, most Western German movies were junk but the GDR produced some very good ones, e.g. Western movies and Spur der Steine; in the 70s Paul und Paula. I definitely recommend both!

In jenen Tagen

Trump is going to target known criminals in the country illegally for deportation. The Democrats have vowed to fight him every step of the way. Don't they understand this is one of the issues that cost them the white house, the house and senate?

Man spricht Deutsh

Nackt

What is the most overrated pleasure? Why?

Does Taylor Swift actually play the guitar, or is it a prop?
