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?

Lola rennt

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.

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

Having read so much about Archie and Lilibet not actually existing, does anyone have any proof that they not only exist but that Meghan gave birth to them?

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

Man spricht Deutsh

Nackt

What’s the craziest thing you’ve heard pretending to be asleep?

Didi - alles im Eimer

Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht

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):

I've never read the book. What did Dorian Grey do that was so immoral and sinful?

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

In jenen Tagen

Die Feuerzangenbowle

Can the effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) be reversed?

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!

Metropolis

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

What steps have you taken to stop being a targeted individual by gang stalkers? What has worked, what would you have done differently?

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

Das Haus in Montevideo

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.

What does 'Whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys’ mean (Ezekiel 23:20)?
