Polizeiruf 110
''Polizeiruf 110'' ("Police call 110") is a long-running German-language detective television series. The name refers to the emergency telephone number of the ''Volkspolizei''. The first episode was broadcast 27 June 1971 in the German Democratic Republic (GDR), and after the dissolution of Deutscher Fernsehfunk the series was picked up by ARD. It was originally created as a counterpart to the West German series ''Tatort'' and quickly became a public favorite. In contrast to ''Tatort,'' which primarily focuses on homicides, the cases handled in the GDR TV's ''Polizeiruf 110'' were more often crimes such as domestic violence, extortion, fraud, theft and juvenile delinquency, as well as alcoholism, child abuse and rape. ''Polizeiruf 110'' followed a stricter police procedural format than ''Tatort,'' paying particular attention to the criminal's state of mind and the social context of the crime. Many episodes sought to promote particular social values. In 1990 the episode was prod ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Quiet American (2002 Film)
''The Quiet American'' is a 2002 political drama film directed by Phillip Noyce, and stars Michael Caine, Brendan Fraser, and Do Thi Hai Yen. The screenplay by Christopher Hampton and Robert Schenkkan is adapted from Graham Greene's bestselling 1955 novel of the same name set in Vietnam. In contrast to the prior 1958 film version, which abandoned Greene's cautionary tale about foreign intervention in favor of anticommunist advocacy of American power, the 2002 film is faithful to the source novel, illustrating the moral culpability of American agents in arranging terrorist actions aimed at the French colonial government and the Viet Minh. Going beyond Greene's original work, the film utilizes a montage ending with superimposed images of American soldiers from the intervening decades of the Vietnam War. Miramax paid $5.5 million for distribution rights in North America and some other territories, but the film was shelved after test audiences perceived it as unpatriotic in th ...
