“When we practised for The Idiot tour, David, I, Hunt and Tony Sales and all the rest had an entire screening room in the old UFA studios where they made all the movie greats…You know, like Metropolis. Fritz Lang worked there before the Nazis took it over. Many great films were made at UFA. They still had all these wonderful German Expressionist films just sitting in cans rotting, because they still can’t figure out the politics of who should get them. You could smell the film slowly going bad.”

Iggy Pop, I Need More (1982)
