My ignorance is showing: tell me about "M." I feel I should know this film, but curiousity compels me not to hide my lack of knowledge.
Only "letter" film I can think of is "Z" by Greek director Costa-Gavras, released in 1967. Kind of a leftist polemic on the right-wing takeover of that country's government.
Entertaining and very watchable, though, as I remember. Featured a photojournalist with a motor-drive Nikon F mounting (apparently) a short focal length lens (probably 24 or 28 mm). He would just point the camera at the subject and fire off a few frames, without bringing it up to his eye -- a technique I used to good effect in shooting NYC street candids.
