The Lives of Others

[Neutr0n1]

The best German movie in my opinion.

[Theaterfreak]

I love this film. We are studying it for A Level German. Best foreign language film I have ever seen :). RIP Ulrich Mühe.

Interesting how they have chosen not to include any dialouge in the trailer, I like that. Superb film.

[leilaOue]

C'est terrible comme il est beau ce film, un chef d'oeuvre !!!

[bulik12]

amazing trailer, without a single word, amazing as the movie

[Dotsonascreen6]

One of the best films I have seen in years.

[VictorLepanto]

Now when I saw this movie originally, I had the impression it was a true story. Then when I googled & went on the Wiki article, it seemed to say that it was completely invented. I was a powerful story all the same. Sorta an Ost-politik Sereno de Bergerac, though the love triangle was even more complicated

[BlauerBooo]

Of course this special story here about the writer and his wife and the Stasi-officer buying his book later is invented. But it stands exemplarily for many, many individual fates! Although this story is made up, similar ones happened to hundreds of citizens of the GDR as well as the system is shown in a realistic way, regarding the factor of supervision.

[Firithfenion]

Exactly. I can confirm what BlauerBoo writes because I grew up in the time and place where this movie takes place. This is an examplary story for many individual fates.

[Czerniakowska]

I watched the DVD of this film at Christmas. Although I can follow it in German, it had English sub-titles. It's an absolute masterpiece.

[mortenolsen2]

was the hole movie with subtitles, not synchronized?

[reklamedame]

No, there is an english version of course. Watch it. Is is really amazing. ;-)

[serrasalmusvalerii]

i love this simphony....can you tell me the name of this melody please?

[soparu]

it's the soundtrack to the movie.

[TelekineticFreak]

you're an idiot.

[angelinakitty]

Excllent vid. so like here in the usa today. the stasi-homeland security. this film should be seen by everyone interested in trying to keep what is left of their rights and their freedom

RESPECT FOR ALL INVOLVED IN THIS FILM

[JohnR22926]

I can tell by the vids you have on your profile page...and by your inane comments, that you're one of those "doom & gloom" drama queens. "Ohhhh, things are sooooo bad. The world is about to END"!!!! Grow up. The piddling little Patriot Act is NOTHING compared to the totalitarian police state that existed in East Germany. Did you even watch this movie? Obviously not...or you wouldn't make such stupid over-dramatic comments.

[breeeegs]

i saw this film...very good, very poignant and disturbing

[TelekineticFreak]

Do you have eyeballs? and functioning ears? Yes?

I don't believe you.

[insolence75]

Masterpiece, sad the actor passed away...

[soparu]

who?

[insolence75]

The protagonist
