The first Fassbinder film I ever saw was Fox and his Friends. I had occasion to think of the ending of this film on the U-Bahn today as I was coming to terms with what it would mean to return to Boston in February after nearly two years' respite.
I am planning my first trip to Munich in August. Sometimes I find it helpful to pause and try to picture a city I have never been to before. For Munich, this would be the ending of Fassbinder's The American Soldier. I believe this film was shot there.
I just now realized that both films end with a dead man in a subway terminal.
