Movie Info

German director Rainer Werner Fassbinder both directed and photographed The Third Generation (Die Dritte Generation). Displaying a sense of humor that can most kindly be described as perverse, Fassbinder follows the exploits of a group of well-heeled German terrorists. Without truly taking sides, the director demonstrates how the terrorists are essentially shooting themselves in the foot. The more havoc they spread, the tighter the government restrictions against other radicals. Eddie

Unrated, 1 hr. 51 min.

Critic Reviews for Die Dritte Generation (The Third Generation)

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (1)

Episodic, aurally and visually cluttered, and calculated to irritate, but like most Fassbinder films, worth a second look.

There no longer can be any doubt about it: Rainer Werner Fassbinder is the most dazzling, talented, provocative, original, puzzling, prolific and exhilarating film maker of his generation. Anywhere.
