Tamerlane's Thoughts: Goodbye Lenin

Tuesday, October 29, 2013

I'm finally going to catch a matinee of Rush on Thursday. I thought the guy who played Niki Lauda looked familiar.

Maxichamp said...: @Anon: Tell us what you think after you see it. I found it very heartwarming.; October 30, 2013 at 9:09 AM
Edvin said...: To me he'll always be the nazi sharpshooter from Inglourious Basterds. Goodbye Lenin was on the telly here just a few weeks ago. I enjoyed it as well.

Oh and I think you're going to love Rush. I expected something very dumbed down and overdramatized for the larger public, but was pleasantly surprised!; October 30, 2013 at 12:16 PM
Alan said...: Oh yeah, I never realized. I enjoyed that, saw it on Netflix back when you actually got a disc in the mail.

Edvin, again, I would have never noticed it was him.; October 30, 2013 at 12:47 PM
Maxichamp said...: @Edvin and Alan: I totally forgot he was in IB.

I have been avoiding Rush because of all the hype. But my motorhead friend insists that we see it in the theater.; October 30, 2013 at 1:03 PM
Alan said...: It's cheesy Hollywood but still a very entertaining watch. I'll probably pick it up on bluray.; October 31, 2013 at 12:27 AM
Ed Kim said...: Goodbye Lenin is one of my favorite movies of all time. Definitely top five for me. And heaven for an "Ostalgie" fanatic like me.

And there's a Trabant 601 Kombi in it. :); October 31, 2013 at 10:42 PM
