Los Angeles, CA —I was invited by an Austrian actor friend, Thomas Mikusz to a screening at the Goethe Institute here.  He was moderating the Q&A of German film Director   Edward Berger  ( of the film, JACK ) and   music director  Reinhold Heil .    Ive been   watching this exciting series that now has me absolutely spellbound!  The writing is top notch.  It’s a Sundance-TV original series.  Sounds American, right?  No! It’s Called, DEUTSCHLAND 83 a cold war thriller about the East German Stazi Intelligence and the very hot cold war before Communism as we knew it fell. Interestingly enough this was released here first.   Germany will have to wait until next month to see this! In an age of reality TV garbage and sensational but mindless, over the top special effect films, this is a wonderful story and character driven series.   Yes, terrific actors actually bring the written words to life off ...
