What would you choose to iconify the 20th century, a period of change defined by war, peace, exploration, introspection?  Let’s start with a masterpiece of literature that became a staple of cinematic history: Die Blechtrommel, or The Tin Drum, written by Günter Grass and filmed by Volker Schlöndorff.
