Germany in Autumn does not have a plot per se; it mixes documentary footage, along with standard movie scenes, to give the audience the mood of Germany during the late 1970s. The movie covers the two month time period during 1977 when a businessman was kidnapped, and later murdered, by the left-wing terrorists known as the RAF-Rote Armee Fraktion (Red Army Fraction). The businessman had been kidnapped in an effort to secure the release of the orginal leaders of the RAF, also known as the Baader-Meinhof gang. When the kidnapping effort and a plane hijacking effort failed, the three most prominent leaders of the RAF, Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin, and Jan-Carl Raspe, all committed suicide in prison. It has become an article of faith within the left-wing community that these three were actually murdered by the state. close

"Overall" is a documentary directed by Bruce Govers. We see on the screen the benefit of the beautiful comedian - Eddie Murphy. Sharp humor of the brilliant actor makes you laugh to tears.
In this film, Eddie is very young, and his play is different from the jokes that audiences are used to at a later time. For the eighties, this style is generally top aerobatics. Not every twenty-two-year-old novice artist can boast such a palette of humorous pearls, such brilliant wit and arrogance. After this picture, Murphy became not only popular: he became a real idol of the American public. close
