"Hans Steinbichler's enjoyable Fraktur, in which a haulage company boss travels to Frankfurt to wreak revenge on the board of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper for removing the Teutonic 'Fraktur Gothic' typeface from their masthead"

Teutonic 'Fraktur Gothic'

I am too ignorant to decide whether its Fraktur or Textur so I combine both terms in hope that one of them will fit, and to make sure that readers even more ignorant than me know what I am talking about I add 'Teutonic'?!

>I am too ignorant to decide whether its Fraktur or Textur

Another movie idea? "Clash of the Teutons"

:D

(I'd be curious to know if the term is taken from the movie or was coined by the reviewer.)

My guess is the reviewer. Seems to be pretty commonly used... http://www.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&scoring=d&q=teutonic

...which turns up this lovely quote...

“The teutonic plates of politics in Ireland are shifting.”

...they love German food in Ireland!
