Das Leben der Anderen (2006).

This movie is beyond masterpiece. Exquisite in all ways. It shows how awful, petty, cruel and overbearingly nasty folk are when they’re in a system built on dogma which makes no sense … it’s essentially communism in your nutshell. Imagine having to live within this horrid wee cocoon environment?

Anyway, big kudos to the hero who makes up shit and at the end of it all gets a wee book dedicated to him. Top lad.

And Gabriel Yared should score everything in life. The opening of a door or the emptying of a bin (any bin). I’d watch that with his tunes. He engulfs the mundane with tragedy.
