(Rainer Werner Fassbinder, 1980)
Adapted from
the Alfred Döblin novel of the same
name, the short series of 15 ½ hours is an achievement in storytelling and book
adaptation. With the boldness of Herr Fassbinder
and his fascination for the History of Germany in the first half of the 20th
Century Berlin Alexanderplatz holds a
cult status amongst cinephiles.
