The Berliner
Long before he played the corpulent Goldfinger, German actor Gert Froebe was a scarecrow-skinny comedian.

Filmed in 1948, Berliner Ballade was later released in the U.S. as The Berliner.

Legendary Sin Cities
Of all the remarkable events of this century perhaps the most fascinating has been the spontaneous growth, flowering and then decay of a handful of great cities.

The immigrant would struggle beside the artist. Gamblers, thieves and prostitutes co-habited with soul-savers, the rich and the powerful.
