What is of absolutely horrible quality is the “movies” that are produced for TV. They are famously bad.

Nackt

And many I can't think of at the moment.

What are the cities in England, UK that have trams?

Here is a list of some (by no means all) German movies that are considered Classics (and a few that should be, in my opinion):

Das Haus in Montevideo

In Wirtschaftswunder times, most Western German movies were junk but the GDR produced some very good ones, e.g. Western movies and Spur der Steine; in the 70s Paul und Paula. I definitely recommend both!

Is there any program to remove music from affirmations (if you listen to subliminals you know that affirmations are masked with music so I want to remove this music to find out the affirmations)?

I have seen some very good German movies. It is not that they don't exist, but they hardly ever achieve much fame. Especially since people have been accustomed to the dominance of US popular culture.

Die Feuerzangenbowle

Metropolis

Weaponizing Tariffs: Top Stocks For The Summer Heat - Seeking Alpha

Es geschah am helllichten Tag

Berlin - Sinfonie einer Großstadt

Besides these, there are some really good children's movies: More recently, the Bibi und Tina series as just one example. Looking back into the 80s and 70s, as well as into the present, I would even say that movies for children are what the German Film industry excels at. There is much less screaming and cake throwing and slimy monsters and much more discussing of matters that affect children in real life (even in phantasy plots) than in most US children's movies as far als I know them. The GDR was particularly well known for excellent children's movies but the west was and is good at it, too.

What is the difference between "eher" and " lieber" in German? Are the two synonyms? If yes, then which one is the most used?

Zur Sache, Schätzchen (and its sequel)

Lola rennt

Didi - alles im Eimer

Do you agree that last year The Beatles released a number one single decades after the death of John Lennon, thanks to AI?

In jenen Tagen

Man spricht Deutsh

Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht
