The Monuments Men
The Monuments Men (Original title)
No. Unfortunately, George Clooney, director of “The Monuments Men“, was not seen during the production in Görlitz. But this did not affect the shootings on the Obermarkt. The market was emptied completely, and just a few historical army cars were driving across.
