Since the film Stalker by Andrey Tarkovskiy was a production of the Soviet Union it was released in the GDR in 1981. However since it was not regarded as close to party principles, its release was limited and it had been locked away quickly. Therefore there was no chance that it could be shown in the exemplary "Kino International" seven years later.

When Lorraine Broughton enters Berlin she is given a visa limited to the time necessary to prepare the return of James Gascoigne. She even fakes an application to gain some more days. This might have been necessary in the fifties or sixties. However in 1973 the United Kingdom became part of the EU (or EC at the time). As a citizen of another EU state agent Broughton did not need a visa to enter Germany and she could have stayed indefinitely. In fact, although not impossible, it was quite unlikely in 1989 that custom checks for flights within the EU would have been executed at all.
