The year 2009 marks the 20th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, and Cornell Cinema notes what was a monumental historical moment with a four film series, kicking off with Billy Wilder's 1961 James Cagney-starrer "One, Two, Three", the production of which was interrupted when the Berlin Wall was erected.
Next in... line is the Oscar-nominated "The Baader-Meinhof Complex", an "explosive but scrupulously journalistic drama" (Chicago Reader) in which journalist Ulrike Meinhof helped secure the freedom of left-wing revolutionary Andreas Baader from prison, and the media dubbed the new coalition the The Baader-Meinhof Gang.
Another gripping political thriller, this time set on the other side of The Wall in 1984's East Berlin, "The Lives of Others" (winner of the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar for 2006) traces the lives of a playwright and the Stasi agent who spies on him, as each confronts the moral ambiguities of totalitarian terrorism in the waning days of Soviet rule.
The series concludes with the comedy "Good Bye, Lenin!"
Set during the early fall of 1989, the tale unfolds after a woman has a heart attack and falls into a coma, thus missing the fall of the Berlin Wall. When she awakes in the summer of 1990, her son must shield her from any excitement as it could be fatal. His elaborate efforts to conceal the end of the socialist regime work for a while, but he can only do so much to hide the arrival of capitalism and Coca-Cola.

Bridget Blomfield, Professor of Islamic Studies (University of Nebraska at Omaha) will present the special lecture, "Women of Karbala: Understanding Shi'ism & Shi'i Women's Rituals" on Thursday, October 15, 2009 at 4:30pm at the Hans Bethe House Seminar Room.
Shi’a Muslims are misrepresented and misunderstood by Muslims... and non-Muslims alike. Who are the Shi’a and what do they believe? How different are they from the mainstream Sunni Muslims? This lecture details the beliefs of American Shi’a women and their religious rituals. It examines their spiritual role models and how their religious beliefs and practices create meaning, agency, and authority in their lives. This lecture is part of a seven year study by Professor Bridget Blomfield who researched Shi’a women, attending their religious rituals, weddings, parties and gatherings while she was working at a Muslim school in Los Angeles county.
This event is free and open to the public.
