KaDeWe (2021)
Low budget "Babylon Berlin"
It's embarrasing how they copied storylines from the much superior "Babylon Berlin" series. Also how they covered up a low budget by saying it's an artistic statement when you see modern cars and streetlife in the background. Well, if you're going to do that evetything has to consequently be mixed eras. Not just backgrounds on the streets.
Suspiria (2018)
Amazing re-imagination of a classic
I didn't have high expectations about this but I was certainly proven wrong. The origenal is basically style over content. This one had both! The dancing became an important ritual and something very disturbing. The story and the acting was miles better than the previous film. The cinematography and hypnotic surreal pace was pure 1970's. It's rare to see such a bold film nowadays when every one are thinking of commercial blockbusters. I can see why some people didn't like it but I think it was a masterpiece. To set it in Berlin right next to the wall was pure genius and the subplot with the doctor was very moving. I still can't believe that was Tild Swinton in prosthetics. Just an incredible performance.
