No source is infallible, but I've found the imdb to be generally accurate as far as release dates ar concerned. Their gaffes are generally due to omissions. For example, Room at the Top is shown to be a 1959 release, when it was actually a 1958 release in Great Britain, but they are missing the Great Britain date.

I've even tracked down the December 12, 1936 date they have for Camille. Though they show it to be the date of the film's first showing in New York, it actually premiered in Palm Springs on that date as noted in a New York Times article of December 11th.

Germany Year Zero won the Golden Lion at the Locarno International Film Festival in 1948. Other winners that year included 1947's Kiss of Death and Miracle on 34th Street and 1948's Fort Apache so who knows. Most references, however, tend to cite copyright dates, which is 1947 for Germany Year Zero. It's on my top ten list for 1949, the year it was first shown in the U.S.

I saw that IMDb says Germany Year Zero premiered in December of '48, but IMDb depends on the kindness (and accuracy) of its contributors and almost every source I've seen -- including a trio of scholarly works on Rossellini cite the film as a 1947 release.
