Pappa ante Portas (1991)
Definitely the definite German comedy of the 90s

Pappa ante portas is witty, intelligent, very clever, very well made, nicely cast, mean, and - we all have to admit it - truer to life than we would like it to be. Loriots humor is based upon his own experience with the German Middle and Upper Classes, Loriot being a part of the Upper Class himself. True self-irony and reflective humor can only spring from knowing ones own faults. Formidable! Watch it! (I wonder if they could make an English synchro of it)
