Momo (trailer)



In the village of Momo the pace of time goes very slowly. Nobody is bothering about stress but everyone has time to chat and rest – until the day the grey men arrive. With a great selling strategy they offer the people an account to collect time.

Die kleine Momo lebt außerhalb eines Städtchens in einem Amphitheater. Sie ist bei all ihren Freunden sehr beliebt.

Eines Tages wird diese Idylle jedoch durch das Auftauchen von grau gekleideten Herren zerstört, die die Menschen zum Zeitsparen überreden wollen.

  1. So ein Quatsch! Dann kann man doch gar nicht so pauschal sagen. Es mag solche Fälle geben, aber deshalb ist das doch nicht allgemeinverbindlich. Außerdem spielt dabei auch immer der persönliche Geschmack eine Rolle!

  2. i don't think so… but well in 90 % of times it's true…there's always rare case here or there… like ahhh uhm… for exemple …Twilight ! ok it's not a big artistic classic but well… everbody say that the original books are much worst than the movies…

  3. Jeder, der die suche nach dem wesentlichen im Leben kennt wird dieses Buch+diesen Film lieben. Hochaktuell. sowohl Buch als auch Film berühren auf die ganz spezielle Art.
    I love Michael Ende

  4. oooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    sounds like a good movie… even though I can't understand a single word. 😀

  5. @Raistlinh Well, "Dolores Clairborne" was amazing as a book and as a movie. Both formats are always different, you can't get a good movie rendering into video every scene of the book, that never works.

  6. Klar zeigen sie Momo nicht im TV. Überleg mal, was für eine Aussage der Film bei der aktuellen Bankenkrise hat.

    "One of the best all-time movies that accidentally nails the banking system and the true background."

  7. @Raistlinh, one kind of expression is painting, another one is sculpture, dance, writing, filming, singing, playing music… you can´t say one is better than another. Each one is a different way of telling or expressing something.Take a look at the "The shining", you can´t neither say the book is better than the film nor the film is better than the book. Each one is different.
    You don´t have to see what are they telling but how are they telling something, you know… (sorry about my english).

  8. Ich find Momo ist da schlecht dargestellt, also ich find die Schauspielerin jetzt nicht so passend…. mhhh, das ist wirklich eine wunderschöne Geschichte, das Buch kann man einfach nicht übertreffen.

  9. @Raistlinh It's not really a fact; it's only a paradigm. But that's all right. Most paradigms are justified. About books and films, they are simple two complete different generes, so both are beyond comparison. Besides, what's "better". Isn't it a very relative word… It depends so much on the person who's giving out the judgement. Anyway, I like your comment… ha ha ha… 😉

  10. The book so reminds me of the movie In Time where the people's lives are dictated by time. I wonder if Hollywood really took the idea from this book because if they did, I think they ought to at least give credits to the author who brought about. But great story.
