| Post; Downfall!
Oh yes! I saw that in the theatre! I think I will get that! I had just read a book called Fall of Berlin by I forget and it was, to me, so true to the facts I can't remember it veering at all...
Yes the first time I went to see it was the Berlin Film Festival. We went and there was a line of about 500 people trying to get in. My friend who was with me was making stupid jokes about people should be scared of getting in lines when having to do with Hitler. Yes and we were at the Castro Theatre which should make Mr. BB Mountain Happy.
This man was walking by with his daughter, he seemed extremely upset that we were all waiting in line for this movie. He was yelling at us about why were we watching this? I started talking to him. I told him that ole line about those who don't learn history are condemned to repeat it. He acted like he never heard that before! Don't you think that is strange that people think you shouldn't watch history even if its unpleasant? Its not like we were standing there with beer mugs and wearing little mustaches!
Next time we saw it was about 3 months later at a regular theatre - no line whatsoever!
Good call! |
