The Profile

German film and television director and screenwriter, known for directing the 2022 film 'All Quiet on the Western Front' and the miniseries 'Patrick Melrose'.

Directs feature films and television; has directed adaptations of novels (the reviewed film Conclave is based on Robert Harris' novel).

The single DeBaser review finds Berger's Conclave visually competent but narratively slow and uneven. Ralph Fiennes' performance is praised while several supporting performances and plot handling are criticized. The film is seen as a heavy-handed adaptation of Robert Harris' novel that fails to deliver a convincing thriller. Overall verdict: entertaining popcorn fare but ultimately a flop.
