PM me these. Very easy for me to keep a list up that way.

I wasn't actually nominating Der Golem, I was just saying that it's a good movie.

Really want to see this!

I think you'd really like it. The story is great, the makeup is great, the set design is fantastic, and from a historical and sociological perspective it's interesting to see a German movie with Jewish main characters a mere 12 years before the Nazis came to power.

The full title is The Golem: How He Came into the World if you're looking for it.

I think I'll watch it soon as I get some down time. I remember I heard of it but I wanted to watch Metropolis first.

I can't find The Golem: How He Came into the World on archive.org and it's not on netflix either.

Netflix has it, just not for instant viewing. Search for "Der Golem, Wie er in die Welt Kam".

I did find it under the first name you had but I had to save it because it said the dvd was unavailable. I will try searching under the name you just said though.

I expect the first post of the movie club thread would be a little more accomplished than 3 simple sentences, for example by having a full explanation of the proceedings, a list of the movies seen so far and links to their discussion.

My suggestion is you use this thread to discuss how to do things and when you think that's sorted, you make the movie club thread. It's a brilliant idea worthy of good and proper execution

Opps...I just moved it. Well if it needs to be in lounge feel free to move it back. Great idea though, this is the kind of activity that will keep the boards alive!

Yeah, the search function on archive.org is a bit tricky I think so when I search for movies, I usually use google (f.ex "der golem archive.org"). It seems the movie used to be available on archive.org, but it was taken down a while ago when someone asserted copyright.

By the way, good idea to watch those films

If you do it, don't forget to let us know what you think!
