Why are German films often so formulaic even though Germany is a European culture? I love them but they follow formula very closely like Hollywood. What are the best German films?

Metropolis

Die Feuerzangenbowle

Besides these, there are some really good children's movies: More recently, the Bibi und Tina series as just one example. Looking back into the 80s and 70s, as well as into the present, I would even say that movies for children are what the German Film industry excels at. There is much less screaming and cake throwing and slimy monsters and much more discussing of matters that affect children in real life (even in phantasy plots) than in most US children's movies as far als I know them. The GDR was particularly well known for excellent children's movies but the west was and is good at it, too.

Why do some young mothers trick a guy into believing that they're pregnant and it's their child when years later they find out that it's not even theirs should he still pay child support or not?

And many I can't think of at the moment.

Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht

Lola rennt

If women see themselves as free, dignified, human beings just as good as men, can Trump hang it up and just lose in a landslide at last? How can men who like and respect women help improve womens' self-esteem?

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

What is of absolutely horrible quality is the “movies” that are produced for TV. They are famously bad.

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

What should you do if a police officer comes to your house and asks for someone who doesn't live there anymore?

Nackt

Man spricht Deutsh

Didi - alles im Eimer

Can you make a fake K-pop group? It can be with any idols.

In jenen Tagen

Here is a list of some (by no means all) German movies that are considered Classics (and a few that should be, in my opinion):

Das Haus in Montevideo

Stock Market Today: Indexes Mixed On Trump China News, CPI Data; Tesla Rallies On Robotaxi (Live) - Investor's Business Daily

In Wirtschaftswunder times, most Western German movies were junk but the GDR produced some very good ones, e.g. Western movies and Spur der Steine; in the 70s Paul und Paula. I definitely recommend both!

I have seen some very good German movies. It is not that they don't exist, but they hardly ever achieve much fame. Especially since people have been accustomed to the dominance of US popular culture.

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

How does a single-payer healthcare system handle costs for surgeries, and what's the patient experience like compared to private insurance?
