Ambiguous? The man couldn't be more German.

I came on here to point out the same thing. He speaks good German, but it's fairly obviously an American to anyone who speaks the language. After some sleuthing, I discovered old Carrington has a reel on youtube in which he also speaks some German.

That picture immediately brought to mind the blog "Men who look like old lesbians." Sorry, Wim. Tut mir leid.

That picture is terrifying.

just to insert a minor point here w/r/t the whole "timeless" ambiguousness: A translator was being used, so 1) any discussion of Haneke's English fluency is irrelevant, and 2) by virtue of the translator's presence any claims of Haneke's fluency are undermined.

I was rather amazed at how much I liked it. A pretty perfect fusion of styles in Wes Anderson and Roald Dahl.

Thanks, friend.

It's "Sie liebt dich"
not "leibt." Seeing as you obviously don't speak-a the language, you might want to double check your spellings there, Chucky.
