among the great movies of all time

Rating: 10/10 (26 May 2007)

all have been said, and the Oscar for best foreign film is gone in the right place at last. In Italy this movie is growing in box office success, week after week. i only want add that "lives of others" offers to the viewers the best final 10 minutes in movie history. From the scene where Wiesler and others leave their seats after the news that the wall has gone down, to the scene where he opens the first pages of Dreyman's book, hardly a word has been spoken, you only see the faces, the eyes, Berlin after the wall; but i must admit the emotional storm that swept me away has been the first in my life as a movie-viewer. Let's face it, thanks to my 12year old son I saw this movie after "Night at the museum" and "Spiderman 3". "Lives of others" is state of the art cinema.
