Fassbinder talks about politics and "Berlin Alexanderplatz"

Fassbinder would be as happy as ever in today's far-left Germany. Open politics, open borders, lots of migrants from exotic countries to enjoy with, promotion of homosexuality and transgenderism, majority tolerance of drugs, just cultural decline in the true sense of the word. But with this comes the decline of art. But I doubt if Fassbinder was ever really interested in high art.

The modern day Rimbaud 😅

Il Pasolini tedesco

Er hat's vorausgesehen, leider.
Danke. Er war genial.

I wonder what he would have thought of Wiseau's masterpiece "the Room" 😂

There was a right wing trend, for a while. But he's wrong now. Everything is leftwing now. You can see it in Netflix original shows and movies, commercials, TV shows. Even our social media. Seriously who are the people that ban ideas from the other side of the political spectrum? Shadow ban users from trending for their political views on them? Its always been the leftwing and they control all of the media.

How we go from this, to marvel....

He was spot on about the swing to the right in politics. It’s happening in most places.

" I will try to make the audience aware of this right-wing trend in politics, so that they won't stupidly and unconsciously go along with it like in the past."

Is the full interview available anywhere?

Damn, as actual as ever

Cinema still hasn't caught up with him.

el asado de satán

Interesting way of putting it.I would say the left (ie:media-education-public service) has made an alliance with the corporate world (most obviously the financial services industry) against the interests of the western citizenry.The left and right have different goals but to a large extent they use similar methods to achieve their aims.Put it another way,both wish to atomize society but for different reasons.Both are hoping for a different result from this new world.Either way,it will be hell.

The modern left is the extreme right in disguise.

Fassbinder was extraordinary but when it comes to politics,he could not have been more wrong.The natural tendency of all modern democracies is to the left which has captured the media,public service and education .What they don't destroy will be buried by the right who have declared war on the citizenry through the financial services industry.I would love to see Fassbinder chronicle Germany post-unification and its relationship with Europe.Who today can tackle this subject?

The dumbest mistake we ever made was getting hooked up with thirdworld savages like you.

@MrTbox999 ist ja lange her die Frage, Sorry, that I found this now. "..den Trend nach rechts.." meint: den Trend in Richtung auf Faschismus oder gar Nationalsozialismus rechtzeitig wahrzunehmen, also dafuer zu sensibilisieren. Der Film spielt zur Zeit der Weimarer Republuk, wie Döblins grossartiger Roman) und in der Zeit gab es ja schon starke Anzeichen für den aufkommenden Nationalsozialismus. Diese Sensibilisierung sollte uebrigens auch heute genauso gelten. Und das wollte Fassbinder auch.

@thefilmjock agreed.

Warum kann ich nicht meine ansicht nicht sagen? Der weisse sheisse ist viel grosser als ich habe gedacht.

Warum kann ich nicht meine ansicht nicht sagen?

Tut mir leid aber ich finde das der weisse man ist uberall unglaublich dum.

I FINALLY made it through the 15+ hour epic of Berlin Alexanderplatz and honestly....I think I really need to REWATCH it again to REALLY APPRECIATE IT! I don't know if I can call it a masterpiece unless I take time to rewatch it and let it it truely sink in. All great movies need to be seen over and over. But my mind is still haunted by images in the EPILOGUE. The surreal disturbing imagery, and MUSIC is so beautiful and stunning that it will remain in your subconscious forever.

He says "Das lässt sich sicherlich im Einzelnen widerlegen"

sounds like has cardiopulmonary trouble in this video.

phöse? Ach du meintest Möse...

GROSO :)
