The Baader-Meinhof Complex wants everything. He wants show how it really wants to show how terrorists tick, will do away with the myth RAF. He wants it to take a large audience, will enlighten and entertain. It is geballert and cursed, you see "Tits and Ass". Moritz Bleibtreu as Andreas Baader playing testosterone-driven alpha-male. His motto, he pops in the PLO before the Camp Commandant Latz: shooting and fucking the same. Johanna Wokalek or Nadja Uhl, Gudrun Ensslin and as Mohnhaupt be staged as a death angel in miniskirt.

Starting from dying Benno Ohnesorg up to the emaciated Hans-Martin Schleyer in front of the logo of the RAF. Uli Edel Bernd Eichinger and have ventured on a delicate fabric and have the whole thing with much energy and a good dose of megalomania addressed. Not a bad combination for a feature film. Anyone here looking for new cognitions, or even demands a discourse that is out of place. The film is obviously made especially for those who only know the RAF from hearsay, which would quite like to know what time it is with these inclined birds from the seventies to who almost single-handedly brought the rule of law to its limits. The template is a nearly one thousand-page tome, praised the often "standard work" on the RAF by Stefan Aust, the movie takes its title. Of course you have to condense such a chemical radical. We chose a perspective. The perspective of the terrorists. For those who are outraged that they had not given sufficient attention to victims or opponents of the RAF, so the federal government to adequately brought into the picture, does not understand something fundamental.

Product Description Germany in the 70s. The radicalized children of the Nazi generation led by Andreas Baader (Moritz Bleibtreu), the former Star columnist Ulrike Meinhof (Martina Gedeck) and Gudrun Ensslin (Johanna Wokalek), fight against what they perceive as the new face of fascism: American policy in Vietnam, the Middle East and the Third World, by leading figures of German Political, legal and industry supported. Founded by Baader, Ensslin and Meinhof Red Army Faction, the Federal Republic of Germany declared war. There are dead and injured, the situation escalates, and the fledgling democracy is shaken to its foundations. The man, who endorses the actions of the terrorists is not, but still trying to understand is also their hunter: the head of the Federal Criminal Horst Herold (Bruno Ganz). Although he tracing is very successful, he is aware that the police not only stop the spiral of violence.
press release writer-producer Bernd Eichinger (PERFUME - THE STORY OF A MURDERER, THE FALL) brings Constantin Film for Stefan Aust's definitive work on the RAF terrorism THE Baader Meinhof Complex on the big screen. Director Uli Edel (LAST EXIT TO BROOKLYN, CHRISTIANE F. - We Children from Bahnhof Zoo) staged the dramatic events that led from 1967 to the "German Autumn" of 1977, the democratic foundations of the Federal Republic of Germany to falter.
Press Release on Stefan Aust's book template book "The Baader Meinhof Complex" first appeared in 1985 and has more than any other shaped the modern image of war the Red Army Faction against the state. There is no indictment and a plea for legal advice. It will make no verdict, either legally or morally Respect. It is a protocol, a chronicle of events, culminating in the "German Autumn" of 1977, found in the murder of the employer president Hanns Martin Schleyer and the kidnapping and release of the passengers and crew of the Lufthansa airplane "Landshut".
MovieGod.de Oh, how wonderful. A German drama about radicals in a politically charged time, which does not moralizing or hollywood'sche manipulation and also got very exciting.
Bernd Eichinger adapted person, together with director Uli Edel, the book by Stefan Aust and begins his film where a story has to start on the RAF: The demonstration in Berlin on 06.02.1967 and the shooting of the student Benno Ohnesorg by a policeman.
The events come thick and fast. German democracy is still on wobbly legs, and supported by the press cover-up the protest movement is quickly gaining momentum. After the fire bombing of a Frankfurt department store to Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin, Thorwald Proll and Horst little son sentenced to three years in prison. The dissident journalist Ulrike Meinhof helps in the subsequent liberation of Baader and gives up her career and her two young daughters in order to join the armed resistance, which now also from human victims are no longer shy away.
The great strength of Edel's film is to reveal the change of justifiable protest to reckless fanaticism. Supported by an unfathomable cast ensemble he creates insights into the radical underground, from which any statement of the authority as a lie, appears every police use as a fascist act and anyone who criticized the practice, observed betray the revolution.
downright amazing device, the technical implementation. The largely with a hand camera turned film transports the viewer directly into the action, without getting the awful documentary look that attracts more attention than any color filter. Even in scenes of immense brutality transforms precious the thin line between immediacy and sensationalism and successfully staged a thrilling image of horror, without sacrificing, even obvious, manipulation mechanisms to fall back.
The Baader Meinhof Complex, has just been selected as the German contribution in the running for the foreign Oscar. It is unlikely that such care is fixed to the German film history at the international audience for revolutionary interests, even if he is going on in the context of the then world events. However, I could not imagine a more worthy representative.
