Lives of Others, Best Foreign Picture Oscar Nod

 Posted by: Michael
The Lives of Others has been given an Oscar Nomination for Best Foreign Picture. At once a riveting political thriller and moving human drama, Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film THE LIVES OF OTHERS begins in East Berlin in 1984, five years before Glasnost and the fall of the Berlin Wall and ultimately takes us to 1991, in what is now the reunited Germany.
 
THE LIVES OF OTHERS traces the gradual disillusionment of Captain Gerd Wiesler (Ulrich Mühe), a highly skilled officer who works for the Stasi, East Germany’s all-powerful secret police. His mission is to spy on a celebrated playwright and actress couple, Georg Dreyman (Sebastian Koch) and Christa-Maria Sieland (Martina Gedeck).
