HOW ABOUT ADOLF? (Germany)
Historic Camelot Theatre @ the Palm Springs Cultural Center 2300 E Baristo Road, Palm SpringsThis movie will be rescheduled. Check back in May. HOW ABOUT ADOLF? – Germany – 91 min – Comedy
"What's in a name?" Shakespeare's lofty question takes on new life in this savage comedy-a breakout hit in Germany-which raucously lampoons contemporary German attitudes, guilt and denials of the Nazi past. When Thomas (Florian David Fitz), the black sheep of a progressive middle-class academic family, surprises his siblings with the news that he intends to name his son Adolf, petty carnage ensues as personal, ideological and sexual histories are unmasked in this scintillating dark comedy. A breakout German box office hit.
