    The film of East Knossmark used a lot of on-site shooting in the East German office building, but the curator of the prison museum refused his request for shooting. reason? The curator said that because East Knossmark's script did not conform to historical facts: throughout the history of East Germany, the secret police "conscientiously found" like Weissler, I'm sorry, there is not one at...

    Looking at the piles of positive reviews makes me feel confused. Has my appraisal ability deteriorated? It really didn't look good. The beginning was really dull, with an unbearable pace. Except for the initial interrogation and the installation of a bug, there was nothing else to tell. It took an hour to babble and shoot, but it was still difficult for me to enter the scene. Hey, everyone has their own love. I can only tell myself this...

    "Are you still on the right side?"...we were amazed at "making some flexibility", "what is important is not achievement but success or failure", surprised at the grasping action after a verbal error, and surprised at the loss after searching.

The Lives of Others quotes

  • Georg Dreyman: The state office for statistics on Hans-Beimler street counts everything; knows everything: how many pairs of shoes I buy a year: 2.3, how many books I read a year: 3.2 and how many students graduate with perfect marks: 6,347. But there's one statistic that isn't collected there, perhaps because such numbers cause even paper-pushers pain: and that is the suicide rate.

  • Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Go away. I want to be alone.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Madam Sieland?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Do we know each other?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You don't know me, but I know you. Many people love you for who you are.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: Actors are never "who they are."

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You are. I've seen you on stage. You were more who you are than you are now.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know what I'm like.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: I'm your audience.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I have to go.

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: Where to?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: I'm meeting an old classmate. I...

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: You see? Just now, you weren't being yourself.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: No?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: No.

    Christa-Maria Sieland: So you know her well, this Christa-Maria Sieland. What do you think - would she hurt someone who loves her above all else? Would she sell herself for art?

    Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler: For art? You already have art. That'd be a bad deal. You are a great artist. Don't you know that?

    Christa-Maria Sieland: And you are a good man.
