The 59th Berlin International Film Festival officially opened today, on February 5, 2009, with the world premiere action thriller The International directed by Tom Tykwer. And out of the blue, I saw him today on Podsdamer Platz..
After I bought tickets at the official Berlinale stand in the Pordsdamer Platz Arkaden for my first Berlinale movie Zum Vergleich (I promise to write about this movie after I have seen it), I was heading to the library to pick up some books. On my way, I spotted the crowd of people around the Hyatt Regency. I got curious and joined the crowd for a while. I had no idea whom they were waiting for and then saw Tom Tykwer on his way to the press conference:
