"Silent acting". What a wonderful expression of Tom Shilling's acting ability that drew me in. Life is full of moments of silent observation that captures your soul, compelling you to be still and watch. German actors like Shilling are good at "silent acting", because are they naturally curious observers of life around them. They can become transfixed by trying to feel what they are looking at. What it means on a spiritual level. Max Riemelt is good at that too. This is what has compelled me into becoming a fan of German films.

I could have never evolved into the film director and storyteller I am today had it not been for my heroes and storytellers all over the world inspiring me to never give up and to always be the best version of myself that I can be even with my imperfections and even with my flaws I am twenty four years old In my life I had to overcome so much adversity I had earned a second degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do Martial Arts when I was ten years old by breaking a karate board lit up on fire I overcame a black ice mountain trail on the Hudson River in preparation for my black belt test in 2005, also when I was ten years old I overcame my diagnosis with High Functioning Aspergers Autism in High School in North Miami Beach Florida I earned a BA degree in History and the Liberal Arts from Baltimore Maryland's Goucher College I served as a landscape photography archives curator for the Israel Museum of Jerusalem for over a half year following my college commencement ceremonies In late May 2016, following twenty two total years (fourteen years of living in New York and eight years of living in Miami Florida), I immigrated to Jerusalem Israel in the tribute and memory of my mother's late Baghdad Mosul born and Jerusalem raised grandmother Salima Chai, who stood for spreading gratitude, eternal love, eternal kindness, and eternal compassion and joy to every less fortunate person and community in need of being empowered and loved. My life's legacy is the legacy of my late grandmothers, as, when we lead our lives with endless love and kindness, for the sole purpose of leaving our world a beautiful place, we truly have the power to put smiles on all peoples' faces and inspire people to be the best versions of themselves that they can be. On my Israeli immigration flight, I screened on my airplane flight screen, The Oscar nominated directed film Brooklyn, directed by Mr. John Crowley from New York and featuring Ms. Saoirse Ronan. Brooklyn, was ultimately, the motion picture film story and film, that inspired me to become a film director, film cinematographer, film storyteller, and a creative storytelling artist everywhere I travel. Home is always where the heart is. That message is with me for life. In November 2016, I had earned my Israeli Jerusalem American citizenship in Jerusalem Israel, and I became an immigrant. In December 2016, I watched Wonder Woman, The Battle of the Sexes, Moonlight, Brooklyn, and Lady Bird. Those exemplary films taught me that, when you always follow the beauty and grace of your heart, you can inspire and liberate people through love and hope. "It is the vision of the director, that turns an ordinary movie into a work of art." - Emma Stone, 2018 Oscars Quote. Following my volunteership with the Israel Museum of Jerusalem and my volunteering on one of Jerusalem's oldest archaeology sites, I have launched the Annenberg Inclusion Rider Jerusalem Israel Chapter Film Organization (a branch of Actress and Film Director Mrs. Frances McDormand's Annenberg Inclusion Rider Movement), The Times Up Now Jerusalem Israel Movement Chapter Organization, The End Violence Against Women Coalition of Jerusalem Israel (a branch of the End Violence Against Women Coalition of London England founded by Emma Watson's dearest close friend Marai Larasi), The Freedom Writers Jerusalem Israel Foundation, The Nevertheless Empowerment Project of Jerusalem Israel (a branch of film director Mrs. Sarah Moshman's LA Nevertheless Empowerment Film Documentary Project organization), The Times Up Now Advertising Movement of Jerusalem Israel, The Billie Jean King Jerusalem Israel Leadership Initiative, The He For She Jerusalem Israel Global Gender Racial Equality Chapter organization, and The Women Up Jerusalem Israel International Movement organization. Today, I work as a QA Computer Algorithm Data Repair Specialist for the autonomous driving safety startup Mobileye Intel Har Hotsvim Jerusalem Israel My greatest life dream is to win an Oscar Academy Award in Los Angeles California in Dolby Theater and to thank my life's greatest heroes in person. NEVER EVER GIVE UP. I WILL NEVER QUIT, BECAUSE IMPOSSIBLE DREAMS ALWAYS COME TRUE.

I really think that this movie shouldn't have been Germany's Oscar submission

[@mateogarimberti3359]

I'm really excited to watch this movie, since the trailer looks amazing and I loved The Lives of Others. But with that being said, I was hoping for Christian Petzold's Transit to get nominated, that's an insanely good film.
