The Berlin of the '20s formed the foundation of my future education... the Berlin of the UFA studios, of Fritz Lang, Lubitsch and Erich Pommer. The Berlin of the architects Gropius, Mendelsohn and Mies van der Rohe. The Berlin of the painters Max Libermann, Grosz, Otto Dix, Klee and Kandinsky.

Ken AdamI have never been sorry to see my sets being struck, provided they are well photographed. They're not works of art but part of making a film.
Ken AdamIt takes courage to stay young, to make your enthusiasms work for you. Don't let anyone drag you down.
