Qui lo chiamerebbero una sorta di "filmisches Zeitdokument". <br /><br />Il messaggio del film, almeno per me personalmente, conferma solo quello che mio padre diceva sempre: "dove lavoro e dove sto bene, li é la mia casa. A cosa serve la patria se non ha nulla da offrire?" <br />Sono daccordo con lui!! <br /><br />Un saluto da Colonia, <br />SalvaSalvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08234873019419598363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1165773290907101242.post-11729611368529060162009-10-17T03:03:34.640+01:002009-10-17T03:03:34.640+01:00I have not seen a good movie in ages.

One of the things about "Nowhere in Africa" that has stayed with me is Walter's almost ironic change of heart immediately the war ended in Germany. Also strong in my memory is the absolutely incredible cinematography. An interesting movie filled with dichotomies and contrasts between cultures and values. I completely enjoyed it and would highly recommend it. Thank you for reviewing it, Cuban!<br /><br />NevineNevine Sultanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08794887684860140819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1165773290907101242.post-91229549092027641422009-10-16T10:22:02.275+01:002009-10-16T10:22:02.275+01:00Always interested in such movies; here especially ...Always interested in such movies; here especially since some of it takes place in my home country; curious to examine the refugee mindset of a European in Africa, as opposed to the expat status symbol I have historically attached...
