A COFFEE IN BERLIN<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Jan Ole Gerster<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenplay:\u00a0 Jan Ole Gerster<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0 Critics\u2019 link, NYC, 8\/16\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 DVD on October 7, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you think of Germany in the 1930s and 1940s, its humor does not come necessarily to mind.\u00a0 German humor?\u00a0 An oxymoron.\u00a0 Now forward to the 21st Century and you will discover German movies that are funny to the locals and whose humor travels well across the Atlantic.\u00a0 The New Wave style \u201cA Coffee in Berlin,\u201d formerly called \u201cOh Boy,\u201d is a wry picture, done in black-and-white with a terrific jazz score reminiscent of a Woody Allen production, its dry comedy absorbed easily by those Americans with enough brains to watch indies.\u00a0 In fact so unusual\u2014yet eminently accessible\u2014is \u201cA Coffee in Berlin\u201d that in a ceremony in April 2013, despite competition from the one hundred million dollar, one hundred seventy-two minutes\u2019 \u201cCloud Atlas\u201d with all the name actors brought to the set by Tom Tykwer and Lana Wachowski, \u201cCoffee\u201d took six top prizes including those for best film, actor, screenplay and score.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a modest indie, virtually plot-less and filmed in black-and-white as though to parody the coffee and milk that its principal character craves but cannot afford.\u00a0 It helps that the charming Tom Schilling performs in the lead role as Niko, a twenty-something slacker who had dropped out of law school two years earlier (without telling his rich, bill-paying dad), and spends the days wandering about Berlin meeting various and sundry people as bizarre as they are interesting.\u00a0 All events take place in a single day.<\/p>\n

Schilling, who resembles James McAvoy, is a fellow who like Rod Steiger\u2019s Sol Nazerman in \u201cThe Pawnbroker\u201d cannot feel. He cannot relate emotionally.\u00a0 Writer-director Jan Ole Gerster, like \u201cThe Pawnbroker\u201d\u2019s Sidney Lumet, may provide a single event that could restart a cold person\u2019s engines, and in that regard as in many others, Gerster does not disappoint.<\/p>\n

In the morning, Niko takes leave of his girlfriend, turning aside her offer to make coffee because, he says, he has \u201cappointments.\u201d\u00a0 Soon thereafter, in his flat, he meets a neighbor who gives him a pot of his wife\u2019s meatballs, breaking down emotionally in front of Niko because of an unhappy marriage.\u00a0 Niko has a conference with a psychologist who is authorized to pull Niko\u2019s driver\u2019s license for drunk driving.\u00a0 (The session is perhaps the most comic in the movie, the shrink challenging everything Niko says in his own defense.)\u00a0 He watches an actor friend (Arnd Klawitter) play a Nazi with a Jewish girlfriend and, while sitting his buddy Matze (Marc Hosemann) in a caf\u00e9, runs into a slim woman (Friederike Kempter) he knew from high school who was razzed for her obesity back then.\u00a0 He steals from a beggar to raise the money for coffee and meets with his father at a golf course only to be told that the trust fund has ceased.<\/p>\n

Berlin has been off the beaten tourist track for too long courtesy of the Soviet domination of the East.\u00a0 Now liberated, Berlin become the canvas on which Philipp Kirsamer trains his widescreen lenses.\u00a0 It\u2019s a big city, not romantic like Paris or Prague, but it project its inhabitants\u2019 efficiency\u2014trolleys running everywhere so there\u2019s no real need for a car.<\/p>\n

As for theme, Niko\u2019s fate is universal.\u00a0 There are people like him all over the world, in rich countries and poor, young people too confused and disorganized to stay in school or get a job.\u00a0 But we in the audience are not asked to have contempt for the man\u2019s laid-back attitude.\u00a0 He\u2019s too charming, a fellow you would not hesitate to have a beer with, or better yet, a cup of steaming hot coffee.<\/p>\n
