seen 1, enjoyed it, currently in the process of making subs for it

eine stadt wird erpresst

grabbing a couple more, would be great if you left it open for a bit longer!

Die Freunde der Freunde

was very good, gonna put that on top instead and hopefully squeeze one more in.

I already updated my ballot but if we have a few more days will try to update it again until then. Thanks flip!

I already updated my ballot

ah i missed that - in future, at least before i've posted results, if you can edit your original ballot instead of posting a new one, that will help me to avoid missing changes like that, thanks!

after finishing YOUR BEST YEARS and COLD SPRING, i am in the middle of BITTER INNOCENCE.
meanwhile, i digressed to the DG interview and got intrigued especially with the part about the parallel with Berlin School...

Only the characters in the melodramas written by Markus Busch—Deine besten Jahre, Bittere Unschuld, Die Freunde der Freunde, Der Felsen, and Kalter Frühling—strike me as suffering from a degree of alienation that is similar to those from which the characters in the Berlin Schools suffer.

so, it means my next viewing will be FRIENDS OF FRIENDS (the last unwatched from the "list" above).

besides, i see Markus Busch wrote few more scripts for DG...
DON'T FOLLOW ME AROUND
IN THE EVENING OF ALL DAYS
THE VOW

and directed one film himself...
ROUGH

the collaboration of Dominik Graf and Markus Busch is (seems like) something i can strongly relate to and thus gonna investigate it thoroughly.

stills from BITTER INNOCENCE, darkest of the dark films in which all the main protagonists are blackmailing each other.
