"Propaganda is a central issue for non-fiction film in the Third Reich. Along with a few well-known and often discussed propaganda films, the newsreels have generally been viewed as the perfect propaganda instrument for the National Socialists. They have to be discussed as a part of the Nazi media system, which includes newspapers, magazines, radio, and the beginnings of television as well as photography or paintings and which developed a special aesthetics and Nazi symbolism. The newsreels determine the image of the Third Reich that we have in our minds today, since they form the basis for nearly all the popular historical programs on television. Surprisingly, however, there is not much research in Germany about this area of film production. Some highly detailed analyses were down at the IWF in Göttingen, the German center for scientific film. From the 1970s on, there have been some books published by former cameramen and a few books on newsreels, but a detailed overview is lacking. Just recently, in June 2003, the first 100 hours of German newsreels were put on the Internet for research purposes, which was made possible through the cooperation of selected archives, copyright owners, and the DEFA foundation; a fourth of these newsreels are before 1945. In recent years, in various countries like Belgium, Norway, France, and Luxembourg, an intense study of the German newsreels for the occupied countries has been done. In this article, the author gives a short overview of the German newsreel production in World War II, noting some aspects of the newsreels that tend to put the idea of them as perfect propaganda into question."

"German wartime newsreels (deutsche wochenschau): the problem of 'authenticity'." Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television, 7:3, 239 - 245, 1987
"With a few important exceptions, Third Reich newsreels have attracted little scholarly attention. That feature film and documentary have attracted more is understandable, especially as many non-historians have been drawn to the subject. Most historians involved with Third Reich film have concerned themselves with propaganda, which is not unexpected, in view of their interest in the state and the fact that Third Reich film (of all varieties)-either overtly or covertly in numerous ways-promoted the interests of the state. But given this interest in propaganda, the neglect of newsreels, which formed part of the Third Reich cinema program, is all the more surprising. If the message was not overt in feature film, it was in newsreels, which from late 1938 formed a compulsory part of the cinema program, as was also later the case in occupied Europe. During the war, it reached large numbers as cinema attendance was very high. These contributors add considerably to the knowledge about the structure and organizations of the Third Reich newsreel empire, newsreel production history, and, most important, a consideration of newsreel reception. Newsreels also of themselves provide a valuable historical source for understanding the period in which they were produced and shown, in this case the war, and in particular the relationship between propaganda and public opinion. The picture that emerges is a complex one, and the variations from context to context are significant." [Communication Abstracts]

Depictions of the German and foreigner in films and authors appearing in West Germany in the 1980s and 1990s are discussed. The films are "Yasemin" and "Keiner liebt mich," while the literature is by Irene Dische and Aras Oren. Traditional German figures become outsiders while the foreigner assumes more of a German identity.

"The writer discusses film in Germany in the period between 1946 and 1948. Both the Soviet and the British-American authorities recognized the German public's need for information and entertainment through film, for reasons that included showing films from their own countries to reeducate the brainwashed German Volk and documenting the war crimes of the German nation. German postwar film is considered to have begun in October 1946 with the release of Wolfgang Staudte's Die Morder sind unter uns (The murderers are among us), the most important example of the "Trummerfilm" genre. This genre involved Germany's own attempt to come to terms with the war and Nazism, and the film reached back past the vulgarity and kitsch of Nazi film to the period of classical German cinema of the 1920s, the Expressionist era, where the crooked streets and painted shadows of Expressionism have become reality in Germany's ruined cities. The Trummerfilm died out in the 1950s with the onslaught of the Cold War and the division of Germany. This genre reflected the need of a people in a specific situation at a specific period in time."

"History played a role in the popularity of Nazi entertainment films. One reason for their popularity is their attempt to replace reason with subtle fantasies. In the so-called Weimar Germany period, the cinema formed a part of popular culture. The Weimar cinema was considered as an avant-garde involving figures such as Hans Richter, Walter Ruttmann and Lotte Reiniger. The transition of the Weimar cinema to Nazi cinema was influenced by modernism. Another contributory to the German cinema's success was its sound technology which replaced most of the silent films."

"The recent expansion of the German film industry is not merely a market effect of globalization, but also involves a process of conscious transnationalism. The fundamental premise of the national film industry has altered in a subtle yet important way: Industry experts no longer speak of German directors creating German films, but rather of a film as " made in Germany" or from "location Germany." The shift from "made for Germans" to "made in Germany" leads to products that sidestep apprehension by national-oriented approaches. The products of transformed national film industries contain models for a reconceptualization of community. Such films engage in a transnational decentering in which ethnocentrism is replaced with intersubjective openness. The resolutions of the resulting film narratives occur not within the filiative national community, but rather through the affiliative potential of the world community." [Art Index]

"Part of a special section examining the influence of the 1960s on film. Contemporary German cinema has been paralyzed by government subsidies that prevent most films from doing well at the box office, by inept filmmakers unable to find an audience, and by nostalgic film critics searching for signs of the intellectual fervor of 1968. German cinema has been dominated recently by television comedy actors whose films are silly and anticinematic. Of the major German directors, only Wim Wenders has managed a success with his Der Himmel uber Berlin (Wings of Desire). It has become fashionable to call for the abolition of subsidies, but state support has nurtured German cinema through both its fecund and fallow periods. The current crisis is more likely a matter of talent. Rainer Werner Fassbinder, who died in 1982, could have established a lasting tradition in German film. In his absence, the critics have embraced Wenders, but this reflects desperation rather than conviction." [Art Index]

"Part of a special issue on marginality and alterity in new European cinemas. A discussion of the flexible accumulation of alterity in post-Wall German cinema and the postcolonial status and aspiration of contemporary German film. There is a curious uniformity to the various ways in which German film has domesticated alterity in the course of what seems to be a collective project of displacement. Fritz Baumann's 1992 film Die Reise des Lowen, no doubt intended to empower the disempowered, shows how quickly the redemption of reality through film can be transposed into a flexible accumulation of otherness. It illustrates that German Third-Worldism can not only reinforce negligence about Germany's colonial past, but also market alterity as a screen of primitivist and realist fantasies, harnessing (instead of decentering) the German viewer's own self and identity."

Many of these films must be counted among the greatest of Weimar's achievements and have become part of the canon regularly seen by generations of enthusiastic film students." [Art Abstracts]

Many are delighted that Germany at last has a young filmmaker with major international appeal and popular and critical success. A handful of observers, however, believe that Tykwer symbolizes all that went wrong with German cinema in the 1990s. Talent was never a difficulty--Germany had talent in such abundance that it could afford to allow some of the lesser stars to go to Hollywood. The problem is that individual talent and vision have been fundamentally erased from the equation for producing good cinema, and "successful" has replaced "good."

"Nazi cinema sought to reshape public imagination in accordance with the party's own beliefs. The majority of films made under Goebbels are light and frothy entertainments without overt ideology or official intervention; almost half of all features were comedies and musicals. Goebbels and his minions followed Hollywood in trying to maximize film's seductive potential and use it as a medium of emotional remote control. American movies and other aspects of American culture were highly present in Germany in the 1930s. With the onset of war, Nazi film came into its own, eliminating American competition, capturing wide foreign markets, and bringing in unparalleled profits. The Reich's consummate cinematic achievement was Josef von Baky's Agfacolor Munchhausen (1943), which enacts the heroic myth central to Nazi self-fashioning. The postwar career of Nazi films has been durable." [Art Abstracts]

"The German people of the 1920's felt they were living in a time of transformation, and argued about what form a Marxist revolution would take in Germany. Filmmakers were reluctant to address the issue of a German revolution directly. Instead they made films about the French Revolution of over 100 years before, or about the distant future, as in Fritz Lang's 'Metropolis.' These films represented the widely-held belief that Weimar Germany's crises would culminate in a people's uprising." [Expanded Academic Index]

"Spaces of the psyche in German Expressionist film." Architectural Design v 70 no1 Jan 2000. p. 12-15
"Part of a special section on film and architecture. In 1920s Germany, the Expressionist impulse transferred itself from the canvas on to the cinema screen, resulting in some of the most dramatic works of film architecture. The formulations of Expressionist paintings, which fought against impressionistic superficiality and illuminated agitated inner worlds, were realized in German Expressionist films in which the heroes roam through a labyrinth of narrow alleys that can represent both a medieval city and a spiritual space that has become visible. In The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, the major film in this genre, the architecture consists of narrow, high rooms and lanes, inside and out, a labyrinth that is completely enclosed and apparently inescapable. Subsequent film spaces and architecture have evolved from the Expressionist space-cell. Indeed, in a number of films, including Metropolis, Key Largo, and Blade Runner, the chosen space, building, or city often becomes the leading character." [Art Abstracts]

"Part of a special issue on Cold-War German cinema. The writer examines the fraught ambivalence around the treatment of romantic plots in 1950s East German film culture. He states that love stories in East German films seem uncomfortably suspended between realism and romance and that the changing fortunes of East German romance reveal the inconsistency of an uncharacteristically erratic Communist Party line."

"Part of a special section on the teaching of film and video courses. The writer describes "Expressionism and Its Legacy," an elective course she teaches to undergraduates that examines the influence on American cinema of the German expatriates who settled in America in the 1920s and 1930s. The course first examines the accomplishments of the Weimar studio system and subsequently investigates the links between Germany and America at the beginning of the sound era. It includes weekly screenings of German silent movies, from The Student of Prague of 1919 to M of 1930; of films made in America by first-generation emigrants; and American films that borrow from the German film industry, such as Blade Runner and Rumble Fish. The course engages issues of aesthetics, history, economics, and politics across two cultures." [Art Abstracts]

"During the 1970s, Munich stole the New German Cinema glory through Fassbinder
and Wenders, but the divided city of Berlin was at the frontier of political filmmaking. As a
refuge from conscription and National Service, Berlin had a large youth population, and it became the center of risk and radicalism. As the home of West Germany's major international film festival, the city was the focus of tensions arising out of the protest movement's radicalized view of the function of a non-industrial cinema. The Berlin school of filmmaking, DEFA, founded in 1965 anchored its films within the traditions of documentary and essayistic work going back to the proletarian films of late Weimar Berlin. By the 1970s, Berlin film culture was committed to a radical engagement with political reality, which led at the end of the decade to films like Solo Sunny. This film, a culmination of the trend for fiction blended with documentary realism, was remarkable in validating self-realization outside state-directed productivity, a sentiment that, a decade later, would dismantle the wall."

Most of these works dealt with the positioning of women and working-class people and addressed problems related to socialism.

East German movie portrayals of the cold war came from the national film company Deutsche Film Aktiengesellschaft (DEFA). The films did not fit rigid ideological constraints until 1989, and showed much artistic license from 1946 until 1989. There was a general sympathy with the aims of the East German government, but DEFA did show sympathetic portrayals of humanity in both sides of Germany.

Communists, socialists, and progressive humanists emerged or returned from exile after World War II to create a new German film that sought to contribute to the reeducation of the masses."

"Rainer Werner Fassbinder: theorie du groupe." Cahiers du Cinema special issue 1998. p. 94-5.
Part of a special issue on film and politics in France in 1968. The work of Rainer Werner Fassbinder is discussed. In his theater and film work, Fassbinder strove to convey a sense of a character's loss of identity and difficulties within a society of pure spectacle that hinders him from being himself. His work with the group Theatre Action embodied all the political beliefs of 1968, but his films gradually came to undermine these beliefs in a disenchanted manner. Prenez garde a la sainte putain is the key film of this disillusionment, examining how the dream of a community and the utopias that went along with 1968 were lost." [Art Abstracts]

He stresses the spectacular nature of the image, often embodied in the form of a female protagonist in her encounter with concrete historical forces. In terms of structure, he treats the films' basic generic mode, the melodrama, dialectically, both adhering to, and revising, its norms in their historical development." {Periodicals Content Index]

"Processes of subjectification in Fassbinder's I only want you to love me." Screen
"Rainer Werner Fassbinder's 1976 made-for-television family melodrama and docudrama Ich will doch nur, dass Ihr mich liebt/I Only Want You to Love Me is discussed. The plot's main action concerns Peter Trepper and his adult life--his marriage, work, hyperconsumerism, and his murder of an innkeeper, for which he is serving a prison sentence. The film can be read as a close examination of an individual's narcissistic disorder and its origins and development in his family, with hints at such things as the narcissistic disturbances in other families. However, Fassbinder works out these relations visually by using material objects as metaphors fornarcissism, and Peter's disturbed personality is so intimately linked to West German consumerism and the demand for material achievement, the legacy of the Economic Miracle of the 1950s, that it is hard to definitively state that the film portrays purely familial, individualistic psychological causation. It offers the experience of complex and acutely framed complicities between familial, social, literary, economic, political, and filmic orders." [Art Abstracts]

The Museum of Modern Art is featuring a retrospective on director RainerWerner Fassbinder. The retrospective features all of Fassbinder's 43 filmsincluding a self-portrait called 'Germany in Autumn.' Fassbinder, who diedat the age of 37 from an overdose, led a lifestyle characterized byalcoholism, gluttony and drug addiction. He was a homosexual who drove hislovers to suicide and struck fear into those who were around him. His filmswere chronicles of the humiliations that he experienced during hischildhood.

"'68/'88: Rainer doesn't live here anymore." Film Comment v 24 July/Aug 1988. p. 47-8.
"Part of a special section examining the influence of the 1960s on film. Contemporary German cinema has been paralyzed by government subsidies that prevent most films from doing well at the box office, by inept filmmakers unable to find an audience, and by nostalgic film critics searching for signs of the intellectual fervor of 1968. German cinema has been dominated recently by television comedy actors whose films are silly and anticinematic. Of the major German directors, only Wim Wenders has managed a success with his Der Himmel uber Berlin (Wings of Desire). It has become fashionable to call for the abolition of subsidies, but state support has nurtured German cinema through both its fecund and fallow periods. The current crisis is more likely a matter of talent. Rainer Werner Fassbinder, who died in 1982, could have established a lasting tradition in German film. In his absence, the critics have embraced Wenders, but this reflects desperation rather than conviction." [Art Abstracts]

"The writer reappraises the work of Rainer Werner Fassbinder. He discusses, from a 1990s perspective, the productive contentiousness of Fassbinder's sexual politics and also considers the formal strategies of Fassbinder's films. He maintains that both these elements share a bullish refusal to simplify for the sake of avoiding controversy. He asserts that Fassbinder took it for granted that to make films was to contribute politically, whether to the politics of the nation or the politics of sexuality. He argues that this assumption, which he finds typical of Fassbinder's generation, should shame the filmmakers of the 1990s. For them, he contends, stylishness has become an end in itself, whereas for Fassbinder style was the conveyor of ideological complexity." [Art Abstracts]

"Fassbinder, the Balzac of German national cinema, portrayed the unity of life and art while refraining from distinguishing between reality and the theater. His films and plays reflect his thoughts without any reservations. Fassbinder's pessimism about the pitiful state of German society is elucidated in his films. They highlight the attitudes of the entire social strata rather than concentrating on any particular individual of a social class. Some of his films, such as 'The Marriage of Maria Braun' and 'The Merchant of Four Seasons, ' are founded on fascism, an integral feature of German history." [Expanded Academic Index]

"The films of Rainer Werner Fassbinder are discussed on the occasion of the release of 23 Fassbinder films on DVD. The person who put the New German Cinema on the map, Fassbinder transformed his obsessions and interpersonal relationships into extraordinary social parables of German life and history. More than any of his contemporaries, he appears to have taken to heart the social, political, and psychological context of his time, and its connections to the fallout of a broken and divided Germany still haunted by the war. In doing so, and by utilizing everyone around him to enact the ramifications, he may be the only filmmaker of the past 50 years who continually challenged the idea that the problems of changing society are contingent on the difficulties of changing the self: Proposed solutions by this or that ideology or political system, regardless of ethical or pragmatic parameters, are useless if they overlook this basic fact."

which he allowed the subject matter of his films to reflect his personality. Fassbinder, the television industry and German media

"Martha" (motion picture review) Cahiers du Cinema no498 Jan 1996. p. 68-9.
"A review of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's film Martha, which was made for German television in 1973 and has been recently rereleased. The story of a violent encounter of love, hate, scorn, and possession between a man and a woman, the film is initially not one that is easy to enjoy. Yet despite its seriousness, Martha includes moments of humor and lightness and remains a work for which Fassbinder deserves much admiration." [Art Abstracts]

The writer discusses the commercial rerelease of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's Martha (1973), a film whose negative had been so badly damaged that it was thought beyond repair. Starring Margit Carstensen, this film is a study of a couple's complex sadomasochistic relationship and explores the physical effects of cruelty and confinement.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder's sexual politics and the formal strategies of his films make the films unabashedly political, reflecting the spirit of the time. His films such as 'Fear Eats The Soul,' which depicts German racism, bears relevance in the contemporary world in view of the rise of fascism. His films reveal the plasticity of images which can produce meanings from the configuration of objects within the frame of a camera. He has a unique style of using the camera and treats complex themes.

"The writer comments on the work of Rainer Werner Fassbinder, singling him out as the most original, talented, and productive director/writer in German cinema after the Second World War. The writer focuses on Querelle, which is based on Jean Genet's Querelle de Brest, probably Fassbinder's most outspoken homosexual film. In this film, she contends, maleness can be studied by watching the protagonists act like members of an unknown--and at the same time familiar--tribe. For the writer, Querelle reveals as through a magnifying glass a claustrophobic, frozen environment of male paranoia." [Art Abstracts]

The first two films were entitled 'Benny's Video' and 'The Seventh Continent' and all three portray teenage violence. 'Funny Games' was screened at the Cannes and London Film Festivals and has been met with mixed responses as far as its portrayal of violence is concerned." [Expanded Academic Index]

"Bored silly." (violent film 'Funny Games') Artforum International March 1998 v36 n7 p19(1) (757 words)
"Austrian director Michael Haneke's film 'Funny Games' attempts to discount typical explanations of violence by combining renderings of stale shock with alienation effects. Through these strategies, the filmmaker aims to represent violence as being inconsumable. However, he fails to realize this goal because he did not implicate his own attitudes with those of the violence-devouring public. Instead of effectively criticizing the violent acts depicted, the film actually embraces a clinical form of voyeurism, which is more pathetic than the violence it is supposed to abhor."

"Beyond the limits: Werner Herzog's metaphysical realism: 40 years of boldly going where no documentary has gone before." Film Comment 41.4 (July-August 2005)
"Werner Herzog has never been granted his deserved acclaim nor his proper place in film history. Together with Wenders and Fassbinder, Herzog was one of the figureheads of the German New Wave. His films have been both patronized and faintly praised, although Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972) is respected for its visual integrity. Herzog's position, methods, and very personal visual philosophy were consistently too grand for easy media absorption. His new walking-heads documentary on the late, semi-great actor Klaus Kinski, My Best Fiend, is little more than an offhand, personal portrait. Nonetheless, it is time for Herzog to be canonized at the very least for Aguirre." [Art Index]

Bis ans Ende-und dann noch Weiter [videorecording]; die ekstatischewelt des flimemachers Werner Herzog / ein essay von Peter Buchka [Videorecording]
A film essay by Peter Buchka analyzing Herzog's work through extracts from his films and statements by the filmmaker himself. From the very outset of Herzog's film career, his intellectual quest has taken him to marginal groups. In their ecstatic isolation he has sought to regain a measure of humanity and human dignity. Herzog's heroes generally fail, however, in a measure proportional to the effort they expend -- which is precisely what makes them heroes in Herzog's eyes, because it elevates their stories to the level of myths.

"A profile of the actor Klaus Kinski. Before the collaborations with film director Werner Herzog that established Kinski's international reputation as an actor of extreme intensity, he performed soul-baring solo theatrical shows that were the talk of Europe. Kinski performed theater as therapy, as trance work, as seizure, as secular exorcism, as unrestrained nervous breakdown, culminating in 1971's Jesus Tour. Kinski could attract a capacity audience to a continental soccer stadium with his four-hour one-man tour through the wild, the beautiful, and the damned of classical theater, from Hamlet to Faust. It was his movie work from 1948 onwards that traveled, however, a hodgepodge of Eurotrash genre films and cameos in major motion pictures. Despite the much-discussed Sturm und Drang associated with it, Kinski's role in Herzog's 1972 Aguirre, the Wrath of God could have altered the direction of Kinski's career. Herzog harnessed Kinski's raw energy to a project of visionary scope and scale, demonstrating to the world that he was more than a colorful oddity." [Art Index]

Journal of European Studies v26, n3 (Sept, 1996):239 (28 pages).
"Left-wing post-war German intellectuals Martin Walser, Werner Herzog and Monika Maron shared a common belief that Germany can achieve a national identity via reunification. The three case studies were based on speeches made by Walser in 1984, Herzog in 1988 and Maron in 1989. Change was already taking place when Walser and Maron delivered the speeches even if the possibility of the Berlin Wall's fall seemed remote then. Future studies should address the question of how the German people perceive Nazism as it relates to the present." [Magazine Index]

"Werner Herzog's recent documentary, 'Bells from Russia,' is unmistakably of the same genre as his other documentaries such as 'Herdsmen of the Sun' and 'Lessons of Darkness.' The film, subtitled, 'Faith and Superstition in Russia' depicted the soul of the country on film within 55 minutes without a commentary. It presented a series of scenes such as singers chanting by a river in Siberia following a self-proclaimed Jesus ministering to his faithful disciples, a terrifying exorcist who talks about fire and death, and a haunting image of people staring through thin ice to catch a glimpse of the legendary lost city of Kitezh."
