Recommended for purchase?
Hello,
I do realize the audacity of this question, but I just want to put it out there. I've been interested in Heimat for some time and I have an opportunity to purchase it for 75 dollars, and Heimat II for 100 dollars, and my question is: are either worth the purchase? What kinds of things do you need to know about me in order to determine whether or not I like it?
I'm a fan of German cinema: I have Run Lola Run, Das Boot, Downfall, Berlin Alexanderplatz, and Good Bye Lenin! among others. I have the Best of Youth, an Italian historical chronicle of sorts detailing the life of two brothers over 40 years of Italian history, and I like that a great deal - this seems like a similiar set up to me, with a much longer run time.
Let me know what you think, and I'll try to respond quickly if you have any questions for me.
Thank you,
Michael
