...Martin Wiese, who came to Munich three years ago and has since worked odd jobs and organized right-wing demonstrations with Alexander Metzing, a Munich carpenter. Wiese and Metzing, both of whom are from the former East Germany, are suspected of being leaders of the far-right gang Kameradschaft Süd-Aktionsbüro Süddeutschland (Society of Comrades Action Bureau, Southern Germany). "It's no coincidence that they are east Germans," says Hajo Funke, an expert on right-wing extremism at Berlin's Free University. "Ten years of experiencing the downside of German unification has created...

...absorbing the language as it is spoken, naturally and colloquially, not dismembered into the artificial jargon of class-room instruction. That there is a very real interest in such pictures is satisfyingly shown by the collegiate attendance at the Fine Arts Theatre, where "Der Kongress Tanzt," "Der Grosse Tenor," "Kameradschaft," and "Der Hauptmann vonKoepnick," have played. If these or like films are shown at the Germanic Museum with admission free, a good response may certainly be expected. At the German movies, as at the French, there will be large, enthusiastic, and variegated audiences; the necessary offstage color will be provided...
