'The Lives of Others/ Das Leben Der Anderen' by Annie Ring (BFI Film Classics Series, Paperback)
This study offers a fresh approach to the remarkable German film, known for its compelling representation of a Stasi surveillance officer and the moral and ethical turmoil that results when he begins spying on a playwright and his actress lover.Annie Ring analyses the film's cinematography, mise-en-scène and editing, tracing connections with Hollywood movies such as Casablanca and Hitchcock's Torn Curtain in the film's portrayal of an individual rebelling against a brutal dehumanising regime.
