Fwd: NP - German Movies

[jochen stremmel]

Perhaps an idiosyncracy, and perhaps not very well justified, but I've got
the impression that before 1965 generally the dubbing was excellent (I
remember with great pleasure Der Hofnarr (The Court Jester - if you don't
know it, you must see it) and König der Vagabunden (If I Were King) (
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0030265/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1)) and afterwards often
sloppy.

Thanks for the recommendations. Why look for dubbings pre-65?
