bjornam's "The Cinema of the 'Berlin School' (Berliner Schule)"

For more info on the Berlin School of cinema, visit the wiki-page http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berliner_Schule_(Film)) – in german – or read this great article by Marco Abel: http://www.cineaste.com/articles/the-berlin-school.htm

The selection of films is more or less based on those sources, with a little extra digging to try and get the "wave" well represented. I’m no expert (just a fan), and have far from seen all of these, so if there’s extra suggestions or corrections, leave a comment :)
