Goodbye Lenin!

Mein kleine kosmonaut...

Hey everyone. I just saw Goodbye Lenin!, a German movie about a guy whos mother ends up in a coma just before the Berlin-wall comes down in 1989. When she wakes up after 8 months, he decides to not tell her the truth, and makes her believe that DDR still exists. First of all, it's a very funny movie. And sad, and beautiful. It's probably one of the best German movies I've ever seen. Very good acting, and a nice sense of humor.
Bad thing; it was a screening at school and for some reason the bozos running the projector had messed up the aspect ratio, so everyone looked kind of fat. It've been out on DVD in Sweden for a while now, I think. You should see it.
