Number of Pages 3

This research paper: This is a 3 page paper discussing the role of directors as “authors” in the film “Germany in Autumn” (Deutschland im Herbst). Authorship from the aspect of film direction has recently become more accepted as it has been realized that a director’s contribution to film is unique and quite distinct from that of the producer or screenwriter. In the film “Germany in Autumn” (Deutschland im Herbst) about the murder of Hanns-Martin Schleyer by RAF terrorists in 1977, the unique “authorship” of direction is most acute as the film is segmented into pieces directed by eleven German directors. Each director presents a different perspective on the events of the crime and while the film is edited into a well-rounded montage, the difference between directors is felt by the audience and the difference between the presentations of the segments reflects well the different perspectives within Germany society at that confusing time. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
