Daniel Bruhl Movie Masterpost

Updated: 1/1/25

Changes: +Added a whole lot. This is basically an entire (at the time) complete filmography except for Der Pakt, Salvador, 2 Days in Paris, The Bourne Ultimatum, and My Zoe. These are not excluded because they are impossible to find but simply because I do not have any local copies and I am lazy. They can be tracked down and added by request. :)

Movies muxed entirely by me :D

The Alienist (2018 - 2020) Daniel Brühl as Dr. Laszlo Kreizler

[rachreads]

Currently on a trip to Germany and stopped by Bar Raval while in Berlin, which is co-owned by Daniel Brühl. 10/10 would recommend holy shit. @supercalifragipopculturevomit I remember you had a post about a month ago commenting on the section of the menu that was listed as Daniel’s favorites? I can confirm that the entire selection was absolutely delicious. Pics below with descriptions in the alt text :)

I also picked up a handful of blu-rays (including krabat >:)) that i will be attempting to rip and upload once I get stateside o7

I also got the chance to visit the DDR museum/checkpoint charlie/the world clock/whatever other filming locations for Good Bye Lenin I could fit in a day or two. And I saw a Trabant that was extremely similar to the one used in the film!

Fun trip overall. I will absolutely be returning in the future, if only to visit Bar Raval again. 🥰

OMIGOD YOU SHOULD HAVE HEARD THE SQUEAL I SQUEALED! I am overjoyed for you, @rachreads 😍 What a feast and an experience! Did you ask if it was typical for fans to pay a visit and order everything off his list? Did you ask the staff about Daniel or anything like that? Did you see that signed Goodbye Lenin photo on the wall? Do they have that album where visitors can sign on display and did you see it? Sorry, I have so many questions!

Also happy to hear that the dish I was most excited to try was your favorite. It sounds sooo good. And to top everything off with a creme brûlée?? If that ain't the definition of WINNING, I don't know what is. Linking my OG post for reference. And possible new hi-def uploads from you? I'M SO EXCITED! Any chance you have a blu-ray of Love in Thoughts? I would love to see the behind-the-scenes of that one. p.s. how cool was the DDR museum? I really enjoyed my visit there. And Kreuzberg is such a vibe, isn't it? I remember my afternoon stroll there fondly.

[rachreads]

to be completely candid, I was so embarrassed to ask about anything regarding Daniel that I completely missed both the Good Bye Lenin poster and the album. I was also with a friend that would have absolutely never let me hear the end of it if I had. 🥲

The DDR museum was really interesting but holy tourists! I couldn’t move more than a few centimeters in any direction in the building. I nabbed a small trabant similar to the one used in GBL’s filming and also managed to grab a jar of Spreewald pickles before leaving BER. ;)

No luck on the Love in Thoughts blu-ray, but i did find eden, krabat, and a little morsel for the three other diehl fans: the master and margarita! I do think I have the DVD for Love in Thoughts somewhere, perhaps that will be the next to pull features off of.

i’m not a bucky stan by really any measure, but seeing Discourse ™ about the chin stroke scene in TFATWS pop up every few months or so is always so funny to me as someone who followed the press junket during the show’s release.

Like I see a post every so often that’s horrified about the “implication” of Zemo touching Bucky’s chin and the “flinch” that Bucky does when this happens (which usually ends in a headcanon about Bucky being sexually abused, which. yeah sure fine. i don’t think Disney would be brave enough to add that subtext and make Bucky’s backstory have that sort of depth, but I can see it).

But… that chin touch was improvised by Brühl. Seb Stan isn’t flinching, he’s trying not to laugh (apparently the take that’s in the final cut was the *only* one in which Seb didn’t laugh) . Both of them confirmed this in separate interviews in 2021. I’ve seen people point to this scene as definitive proof that Bucky was sexually abused by Zemo in the Civil War era, which just simply did not happen.

Headcanon what you wish, btw. I don’t really care what people’s personal interpretations are, but I’m rlly tired of that interpretation being taken as canon. 😭

hi all i made a twitter @ goodbyerach in case you want to see more shitposts from me :)

i will be about as active on there as i am here so expect exactly one post per business month

[morbsxadorbs]

those who know me know I regularly subject my Zemo 20cm doll to all kinds of dress up — after the brilliance that was The Franchise, I couldn’t help but track down/upcycle a few pieces to let him be yet another Daniel Brühl character:

The Cheese Man of Düsseldorf!

more under the cut to save people’s dashes

Eric Bouchard, directing genius — minus beard. (I thought about trying to make one out of felt, since I didn’t want to apply anything makeup-y directly to the cotton, but finally just decided he’d be clean-shaven. Possibly after another breakdown, who’s to say.)

…but plus beloved Indoor Scarf, obviously!

that is the hem of a t-shirt I originally cut apart to make the logo into a back patch for a vest — I cut another scarf also in heather grey, to look more like the marbled one he has in the show, but finally decided the black looked better.

I also made sure to put together his location shoot outfit!

(stress hiccups not included.)

the hat unfortunately is not stuck on his head has no drawstring, but I think it works nonetheless. lucky for me, Eric had kind of a monochrome capsule wardrobe vibe, so it was easy to take some basics I already had and assemble them.

anyway! it’s not much, just something little and fun I did with my spare time. if you’re a db fan and you haven’t got to watch the show yet, I highly recommend finding it somewhere — he’s a gem, and gets to show off his comedy chops even more than usual!!

I’m bummed hbo has already cancelled the show after one season, but not surprised. I kind of wish apple or someone would buy it out from under them to keep it going - especially with the cliffhanger they left us on - but alas.

that’s all I have to say to them, really.

Would anyone read a fanfiction where Carmy (The Bear) falls in love with Tony Balerdi (Burnt) because I’m writing that right now
