История
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Bernhard Wicki (28 October 1919 in St. Pölten, Austria - 5 January 2000 in Munich) was an Austrian actor and film director.
Wicki studied in the city of Breslau such topics as Art History, History und German Literature. In 1938, he transferred to the Schauspielschule des Staatlichen Schauspielhauses (drama school) in Berlin. In 1939, because of his membership in the Bündischen Jugend he was imprisoned for many months in the Sachsenhausen concentration camp. After his release he moved to Vienna, and then in 1944 to Switzerland.
After the end of World War II, he starred in many films, like Die letzte Brücke (1953) and Es geschah am 20. Juli (1955). He was also a photographer. His first attempt at directing came three years later with the documentary Warum sind sie gegen uns? (1958). He became internationally famous with his anti-war film of 1959 called Die Brücke. In 1961, he won the Silver Bear for Best Director at the 11th Berlin International Film Festival for his film The Miracle of Father Malachia.
After his death in 2001, a fund was started and named after him in Munich, the Bernhard Wicki Memorial Fund. Since 2002, it has awarded a film prize, The Bridge, considered a peace prize. A further prize was endowed in 2006 with 15,000 euros, a prize given in the city of Emden since 2000. He was a patron of the International Film Festival in Emden-Norderney which first started in 1990.
He first married Agnes Fink, a fellow acting colleague, and later married Elisabeth Endriss, also a colleague. In the documentary Verstörung - und eine Art von Poesie (June, 2007), Elisabeth Wicki-Endriss portrayed the life and work for Wicki.
He is buried at the Nymphenburger cemetery in Munich (grave number 4-1-23).

Prinzenbad gives us a microcosm of a society dominated by male power plays, wheeling and dealing, corruption, love, and eroticism.

For fans of history, this glimpse of Munich society in the 1920s will be a much-treasured event. The story revolves around an art-gallery manager who puts on a show featuring the scandalous works of a woman artist who committed suicide. He is unjustly accused of having committed adultery with her, and for some reason the authorities decide to make an example of him. He is imprisoned at about the same time that Hitler and the nascent Nazi party attempt the infamous Beer Hall Putsch, and the gallery manager's girlfriend and a Swiss writer valiantly (and unsuccessfully) attempt to get better justice for him. Nobody in authority, it seems, has the courage to take up the challenge of righting this particular injustice.

Советский писатель Вадим Никитин приезжает в Гамбург, где недавно был издан его роман. В памяти Никитина воскресает Германия последних отчаянных боев за победу в 1945 году, когда был короткий отдых в немецком городке и была Эмма, молодая немка, в которую он был влюблен. Спустя сорок лет, они встречаются вновь.

Непобедимым чемпионом мира, Акивой Либскиндом гордится весь Советский Союз, но его слабое сердце может оборвать цепь его побед. Его противник — Павиус Фромм, сбежавший из Советского Союза. Когда чемпионат начинается, Фромм пытается нарушить его расписание и таким образом сбить концентрацию Либскинда, опоздав на первый ход. Его привычная наглость и общее презрение к правилам вынуждают Либскинда подать формальную жалобу жюри. Когда Липскинд угрожает отъездом, Фромм подает назад и пишет формальное извинение, чтобы не потерять шанс победить чемпиона. В результате таких ходов вне шахматной доски оба шахматиста начинают сдавать — Либскинд физически, а Фромм — ментально. Но шахматисты, однако, всего лишь пешки в большой политической игре между Советским Союзом и Западом. Режиссер Дембо вынес на экран в первую очередь эмоциональную битву между двумя незаурядными личностями, а не саму игру.

"Spring Symphony" is the story of Robert Schumann and Clara Wieck. Both were music entities. Robert Schumann turns out to have been a second tier composer, if that, never rising to the heights of a Beethoven or Mozart. In contrast, Clara Wieck was a master technician in the playing of the piano, a composer (probably not at Schumann's level), and was a child prodigy.

This two-part drama examines the fate of Haneke’s own generation which came of age after World War II. The first part depicts the generational gap between 1950s teenagers and their parents while the second shows this same group of characters twenty years later as they have grown up to be dysfunctional and suicidal adults. Regarded as the most significant of Haneke’s early works, Lemmings contains incipient treatments of many of the themes he would later elaborate on in his theatrical features.

Ночью на площади священник Малахиас молит Бога, чтобы тот убрал ночной бар подальше от церкви. Бог исполняет просьбу Малахиаса, и бар по воздуху переносится на пустынный остров. На месте бара открывается торговля святой водой, сосисками, изображениями Малахиаса. Печать, радио и телевидение используют это «чудо» и дурачат наивных верующих. А торговцы и спекулянты зарабатывают на этом большие деньги. В баре богатые бездельники и рыцари наживы устраивают безобразные оргии. Увидев все это, Малахиас умоляет Бога сделать «чудо» несостоявшимся. И бар в своем первоначальном виде оказывается на прежнем месте.

События фильма происходят в маленьком немецком городке в последние дни Второй мировой войны. Гитлеровская армия терпит поражение за поражением, скоро в городе могут оказаться американские войска. В такой ситуации нацисты идут на крайние меры, пополняя свои резервы школьниками, взятыми прямо из-за парт. Они призывают и семерых друзей-одноклассников, которые с восторгом воспринимают возможность отличиться. Однако голос разума подсказывает начальству, что лучше этих юнцов не бросать в мясорубку, поэтому их оставляют охранять мост, не имеющий никакого стратегического значения. Впрочем, вскоре так выходит, что они остаются последним препятствием на пути американских войск…

Hauptmann Dornberg
Laslo Benedek interrupted his thriving Hollywood career to return to Europe as director of the German Kinder, Mutter und ein General (Children, Mother and the General). The film is set in Berlin during the last days of WW II. Desperate for manpower, Hitler has ordered that all able-bodied teenaged boys --some as young as 15 -- be drafted into the army. Frau Asmussen (Hilde Krahl) is one of five mothers who learn to their horror that their boys have been slated to be cannon fodder on behalf of the Third Reich. Asmussen and the other mothers head directly to the front to plead with the German generals for the lives of their sons. Not directly an indictment of Germany's involvement in (or incitement of) the recent war, Kinder, Mutter und ein General stresses the futility and heartbreak of all wars everywhere.
