... the time(s) ... when we fell in love ... do you remember the time(s) ... and so forth! So no pun intended - also nothing to do with Michael Jackson whatsoever .. this is more about a man who is declining ... quite rapidly too from a certain point ... and having him played/portrayed by Klaus Maria Brandauer ... one of Germanys arguably best actors ... well is a nice touch to say the least.

And he is needed (alongside Gedeck who is phenomenal too) - because playing this individual takes a lot of ... strength ... and it is not easy not too fall into cliches. There are ups and downs ... and I assume if you have been in contact with a person who suffered too ... well you probably will be reminded ... many things will feel and look familiar ... cherish the time you have with your loved ones ... it is easily said and even easier dismissed, but if you take anything from this movie ... help each other out (not just during easy times)

German cinema is famous for its historical depth, expressionist aesthetics, and social-political engagement. It has moved from Expressionism to political reckoning, from New German Cinema's raw realism to contemporary genre experiments. Its legacy lies in both technical innovation and deep explorations of history, morality, and philosophy.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
