Editing Munich (section)

===Cinema===
Munich was (and in some cases, still is) home to many of the most important authors of the [[New German Cinema]] movement, including [[Rainer Werner Fassbinder]], [[Werner Herzog]], [[Edgar Reitz]] and [[Herbert Achternbusch]]. In 1971, the [[Filmverlag der Autoren]] was founded, cementing the city's role in the movement's history. Munich served as the location for many of Fassbinder's films, among them ''[[Ali: Fear Eats the Soul]]''. The Hotel [[Deutsche Eiche]] near Gärtnerplatz was somewhat like a centre of operations for Fassbinder and his "clan" of actors. New German Cinema is considered by far the most important artistic movement in German cinema history since the era of [[German Expressionism]] in the 1920s.<ref>{{Cite news |title=History of film – German Expressionism, Weimar Republic, Nazi Propaganda {{!}} Britannica |url=https://www.britannica.com/art/history-of-the-motion-picture/Germany |access-date=1 January 2024 |newspaper=Encyclopedia Britannica |language=en |archive-date=1 January 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240101212231/https://www.britannica.com/art/history-of-the-motion-picture/Germany |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Delaney |first=Darby |date=29 June 2018 |title=A Beginner's Guide to New German Cinema |url=https://filmschoolrejects.com/beginners-guide-to-new-german-cinema/ |access-date=1 January 2024 |website=Film School Rejects |language=en-US |archive-date=1 January 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240101212231/https://filmschoolrejects.com/beginners-guide-to-new-german-cinema/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
