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?

Metropolis

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.

Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht

J.K. Rowling said that 65% of people in Britain are transgender. Where did she come up with that statistic?

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

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!

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

Can I use the LEG PRESS to build muscle?

Didi - alles im Eimer

In jenen Tagen

Nackt

What started the whole idea of femboys? What is the whole point of a femboy? Did a boy or a man just randomly start dressing or acting feminine or something?

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.

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):

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

How would you respond to Rep. Nancy Mace's claim that the GOP platform is more in line with what the American people want compared to the left?

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

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

Lola rennt

I am still studying engineering. I feel worried being an average student. Can I get a good job in placement, buy a house, and a car? I don't know why I feel this.
