A THOUSAND LINES – AUSTRALIAN PREMIÈRE @ THE 2023 GERMAN FILM FESTIVAL

 

 

 
A THOUSAND LINES (Tausend Zeilen) is a very fast paced entertaining story, that is all about the fake news scandal involving multiple news stories. Based upon the 2018 true story, that involved one featured-articles journalist (Claas Relotius) at the German magazine publisher DER SPIEGEL. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, apparently did not apply to each and every word written by that award winning journalist at DER SPEIGEL.
 

We follow one investigative journalist at DER SPEIGEL together with his photographer, as they both undertake a fast-paced journey of discovery, tracing the travels of one featured-articles journalist (Claas Relotius) to examine the veracity of each and every already published story as written by that featured-articles journalist.

Staff versus Management. Unfortunately intolerable levels of hardship caused to Staff, with Management PERMANENTLY refusing to believe that their award winning journalist, faked each and every published story. This is not about “balance of probabilities” and “beyond reasonable doubt” the investigative journalist, took every effort to fully document and verify the lies, more lies and additional lies as always written by that one journalist. Contacting each and every person supposedly already interviewed, to discover the journalist never ever interviewed the persons of interest in the published stories. Highly Recommended.

LANGUAGES – German, English AND with English subtitles.

AUSTRALIAN CLASSIFICATION – CTC but probably rated M (Mature Themes).

RUNNING TIME of 93 minutes.

Once we were old enough, my parents took the whole family to the Sydney CBD cinemas every week. Thus began a lifetime interest, in going to the cinema every week, and became a passionate cinephile by watching all those very heavily edited ''Australian Film Censorship Board'' true cinéaste versions of brand new release ''Cinematograph Films''. Greater Union always gave my father (who worked in Cinema Distribution Exhibition) guest double movie passes, to every first-night ''red carpet Opening Night'' at The State Theatre Cinema at 49 Market Street. Up until his death, my dad always received ''two house seats'' for every Opening Night performance events at the Theatre Royal SYDNEY and at Her Majesty's Theatre SYDNEY. As a child, when mum choose not to go, I often went with him, to those live performance events. As a young child, I remember being taken for each new show, at both The New Theatre at 60 Sussex Street, and the Phillip Street Theatre when located at 150 Elizabeth Street, and for classical music concerts at Sydney Town Hall. = = = ★★★★★ = = = Being happy is a choice, and I have always viewed my life, as material ready be made into a series of amazing tentpole movies. My New Years Resolution is kept every year: ''Get to see/review five new live theatre shows each week, and get to see/review six new cinema movies each week'', plus is one of the Australian Cinema Pioneers, and apparently have seen far too much already, but always wanting to experience more and more each year. I am also able to do almost everything that I enjoy doing. Yes, I do have a great daytime job in I.T. as ''Software Design Project Manager'', PLUS each evening until quite late - - - Australian Cinematograph Films historical censorship consultant - product-placement consultant - mystery-shopper consultant - playwright, writer, author, director, producer, photographer, cinematographer, color-grader, subtitles proofreader - arts/ drama/ music/ film critic and judge, journalist, member FIPRESCI & FCCA & AFCA, member AACTA accredited film reviewer-critic-writer, accredited IMDB.COM critic-reviewer-author, projectionist, plus an innovative iconoclast - - - ★★★★★ LYNN BELVEDERE ★★★★★ - - - [usr 5] - - -
