The Germans Strike Again is a Greek comedy-drama from 1948, directed by Alekos Sakellarios. The film notably states in the opening credits that it is "a satirical nightmare." The screenplay was written by the director in collaboration with Christos Giannakopoulos, based on a play by the latter. It was produced by Finos Film. The film stars Vasilis Logothetidis, Mimis Fotopoulos, Vangelis Protopapas, Lavrentis Dianellos, Dinos Dimopoulos, Ilya Livykou, Nitsa Tsaganea και Christos Tsaganeas.

Production

The film was released in theaters across Athens, Piraeus, and the suburbs in 1948, drawing 136,033 tickets during its initial run.

The film is a film adaptation of a stage play by Sakellarios and Giannakopoulos, which was originally performed under the same title during the 1946–47 winter season. The play premiered on Saturday, October 19, 1946, by the Marika Kotopouli troupe at the theater bearing her name within the "Rex" cinema-theater. Several of the actors from the original stage production also appeared in the film.

This was the first film directed by Sakellarios. In fact, he also appears in the film, playing the role of a man observing an argument.

It was the first major commercial success for Finos Film and is considered a precursor to the company's (and Greek cinema's) many great successes that followed.

Several well-known actors made their film debut in this movie, including Ilya Livykou, who later formed an inseparable cinematic and theatrical duo with Vasilis Logothetidis. It also marked the first appearance of one of Greek cinema's greatest tough guys, Nikos Fermas. Additionally, Stefanos Stratigos, Mimis Fotopoulos, Lavrentis Dianellos, and Giannis Heimonidis made their first appearances.
