The Brandenburg Gate surrounded by a forest of cranes |
| Guide Rating - | 
 |
 |
| Pros |
Fascinating footage of buildings going up and coming down
Soundtrack by Einstürzende Neubauten
Underwater cement pouring! |
 |
| Cons |
Does not offer much background
Long, wordless scenes of construction crews
doing their job aren't everybody's mug of beer
A city laid to waste and footage of prime
downtown real estate opening up through mass destruction
hit home a bit too close for New Yorkers right now |
 |
|
The Bottom Line - An interesting
subject, if you care about cities, history, and the unique situation
of Berlin.
