B-Movie: Lust & Sound in West-Berlin 1979-1989 Audience Reviews

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
timotheyido This is an excellent documentary (featuring Nick Cave, Blixa Bargeld, David Bowie, New Order, David Hasselhoff & Hitler!!). It's main concern is the music scene of West Berlin (during the 80s) & it's evolution in a political enclave during the Cold War years.Please check it & review; I feel like I'm the only person that's seen it & it deserves a wide audience. Watch it, love it, tell the others.
Horst in Translation ([email protected]) Well.. calling it famous may be a bit too much, but compared to other works from the documentary genre in Germany, this one is actually fairly popular and well-known less than a year after it got released. This 90-minute movie was done by a trio of directors and all three of them (Hoppe, Lange, Maeck) have a connection somehow to Berlin in the 1980s. This is what the movie is about. Mark Reeder co-wrote this and he is also the one narrating from first-hand experience because of the experiences he made during that time in the underground music and movie establishment in Berlin. You may have seen him in some of Jörg Buttgereit's films, especially "Nekromantik 2". We also see reaction from members of the German punk rock band "Die Ärzte" about the movie. And there are many other musicians in here who had a special connection with Berlin around that era, such as David Hasselhoff, Nick Cave, David Bowie or "Die Toten Hosen".I myself had an interest in this film as I was born in Berlin and lived here for almost my entire life. I wasn't yet born or too young when it comes to most of the contents from this movie, even if I certainly roughly knew about the circumstances. Good thing is that this film is not exclusively about music in West Berlin, but about Berlin (also East) in general in a historic context. Everybody with an interest in this wonderful city will appreciate the watch I am positive. The only reason why I am not giving this one a higher rating is because I personally do not really identify with most of the people (or the movement in general) that this film is about. However, maybe you think differently about that approach and in that case you will enjoy it even more than I did. I thought this was a pretty solid documentary and I recommend it.
Joanna Woodward Went to see B Movie: 'Lust And Sound In West Berlin', last night, its a must to get the DVD from German amazon out in October, because if you weren't having the late night indecency, you can now enjoy it in the safety of your seat. A magnificent marrying of style and content, and if you thought you were going to get lost in an unspecified anonymous collage of images; there's a clever use of main protagonist Mark Reeder, who as well as using voice over keeps you watching and draws you in with his own super 8 footage from this time - which includes when Nick Cave moved in with him.Mark Reeder is founder and owner of the German electronic dance music label "MFS" and "Flesh".JoWOnder
