Wolfgang Staudte's Kirmes takes a frank look at cowardice and collaboration. Karl Anton's Bonjour Kathrin is a glossy musical. Attacked for slandering the German people, Wolfgang Staudte's Kirmes is a frank look at cowardice and collaboration when all the inhabitants of a small village refuse to shelter one of their own from the Nazis and the horrors of the front line. (1960; 104 mins.)

Set in Paris and San Remo, Karl Anton's Bonjour Kathrin is a spectacularly glossy and frothy musical starring German show-biz icon (and frequent Ed Sullivan Show guest-star) Caterina Valente. (1955; 96 mins.)
