A Remake Could be Wonderful

This is a realistic movie about mediocre people doing stupid things. If that interests you, it's a decent movie. The German styling, is thick and appealing, with seriousness ever-present. And a road movie, too- the road of life- children with a clean slate, infected by the adults around them, to become broken adults. Never rising out of the swamp of Basic Human Condition-- Hapless. Hopeless. Quite somber!
