Movies & More: German Films

I listed some of my favorite French films yesterday. And, you know, I didn’t toss my bouillabaisse. Amazing. It even got a bit of reaction. Pete Porter, director of the Spokane International Film Festival, asked – in honor of SpIFF’s ongoing Professor’s Series – that I do the same thing for German films. That’s because the next film in the series is “The Lives of Others,” directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and winner of the 2007 Oscar for Best Foreign Language film. It will be presented by Brian Clayton and Richard McClelland, professors in Gonzaga University’s philosophy department. Anyway, here are some German films that I would watch more than once. In some cases, I definitely have/Dan Webster, Movies & More. Dan's favorite German films here.

Question: Do you have a favorite German film?
