Last night Gwen, Marcella, Dave, Mick, Ruth and I went to see The Good German. We managed to get free tickets from Marcella.
This movie wasn't a hit. I think it did have some good parts, but as a whole, the plot was thin and slow. It helped having a German there and I asked her at the end if all the people who where speaking in German had American accents. She mentioned that two of the characters sounded like they where from Germany, and even some of the language used wasn't correct.
I did enjoy how the movie was in black and white and how it was shot as a film made at that time would have been, the camera angles and the lighting. However that isn't enough to keep me interested. There is a few things to note though, The movie poster (seen above) is an homage to a poster for the classic film Casablanca, as is the closing scene at the airport.
