Simply great.
You couldn't handle a delicate topic like East Germany's interior surveillance by the secret service "Stasi" with more sensitivity.
This is the way it might really have been like.
And the ending is one of the most elegant endings in movie history.
I'm pretty sure this movie will win the Oscar for the best foreign film. And it would be a worthy candidate for best film, if th festival would not be so arrogant to think that the best movie must be American.
(No question: there are many great American movies, but the festival should be a little more open minded)
