Nebenan

I did not know anything about this movie when I watched it on Netflix.

I suggest you dive right in.

This movie , directed and starring Daniel Brühl, with Peter Kurth as "the other guy" centers around an actor named Daniel who just wants to read the only page of a script he got for an audition, hence entering a pub for a coffee before taking his flight.

What unfolds is one of the best German movies I have seen in a long time.

Despite rarely leaving the premises, and playing in real time, this is veritable seat glue with brilliant dialogue and hard to guess twists and turns in the story.

Daniel Brühl got Daniel Kehlmann as the writer, who is also a novelist, and it shows in every detail.

Add to this a beautiful and effective cinematography and rare but masterful score/songs and we have ourselves a movie that will be shown in film making classes.

One can learn so much watching it.

I don't understand how this is not even rated a 7.0 on imdb.

You certainly won't be disappointed even when you go in with high expectations.

Well done, Daniel. Please make more movies. You are Germany's best talent.
