I can't watch the first Dr. Mabuse again, I watched it too many times already...

It's about an evil psychotherapist who tries to build an empire of crime by hypnotizing people.

IT'S AWESOME

anyone else into silent film? particularly Weimar?

[I regret asking this already]

Seen a few of those, Fritz Lang was a genius. Set in the Weimar period is Fassbinder's Berlin Alexanderplatz, about an imprisoned pimp's readjustment to society.

@SW-User Hello friend

@oneperson Hi, are you the one who took the trouble of viewing Veronika Voss a few months ago?

oneperson · 31-35, M

I've always avoided his Berlin Alexanderplatz. I really wanna read the book very, very badly, but I need to learn German first lol

I love Fassbinder though. I think Chinese Roulette was the last one I watched. He's so great, I'm basically addicted to 'Lili Marleen'.

I'm totally gonna watch a Fassbinder. Thanks loads

I feel like we're an oppressed people here.

I talked to one guy once who likes Kubrick

@oneperson Great to know, he is my favorite narrative filmmaker, looking forward to seeing Eight Hours Don't Make a Day .... Berlin Alexanderplatz was life changing, i too need to read the book, it would have to be translated though. LOVE how Chinese Roulette opens with some Mahler ....:)

@oneperson There's a few who like fine cinema here, one of my friends here Cierzo does .....:)

@oneperson Not a film rich community, but when people are gotten known better, maybe much more than we thought *_*

I'm sure it's been translated, I'm just annoying to the point I need to learn German. I love the Weimar Republic, it was so cool.

Wow, I hadn't even heard of EHDMA before. I've a number of his, but I'm always so busy and careful about when to watch them... there are such a limited number, it's almost like a special occasion for me. They're delicious, really.

My friend's name is 'Brando2'

I'll try and post more about film.

@oneperson Delicious melodrama .... Fear of Fear, and The Stationmaster's Wife are noteworthy. i think i'll make it an RWF night too ..... have you seen GW Pabst's Pandora's Box? .... Lang's Destiny too is great, it inspired Luis Bunuel.

@oneperson Have a good one, talk more later.
