Free Fall ( Freier Fall ) Gay German Film 2013 Starrg Hanno Koffler and Max Riemelt

Reviewed the Uned Stat on June 1, 2017I heard this scribed as a German "Brokeback Mounta" - a ncept difficult to grasp given that tak place the prent and that Germany, generally speakg, is a good al ls homophobic than the US.

The one t, Kay, is close to beg openly gay and has few qualms tellg Marc, the other t, that he wants him. It do volve some of the them "Brokeback Mounta" - feelg stuck between two worlds, disfort one's sk, brazen homophobia - but ends there. It also imag to highlight aggrsn and homophobic vlence.

The gay scen are somethg I would like to see more of - realistic, assumptive, emphasis on kissg and rsg, simply classy.

FREIER FALL : IS HANNO KOFFLER GAY/BI REAL LIFE?

I'm not at all nvced that Mark is gay.

All the actors do a great job their rol and 's tertg to see a slice of morn German society long known fact is that societi where there are rigid cultural and genr l, the cints of homosexualy is much greater than societi where the genr rol are much more relaxed. Germany has always been an overtly homophobic society and has had an unrground of gay sub would be worthwhile to see how many gay folks there are the German police partment, natnwi. I thk there was jt a tad too much volvement of Betta - I really wanted to believe that Marc is pletely gay and not jt swgg both ways.

FREIER FALL 2

I didn't like the whole set-up of Marc's fay fdg out about his homosexualy.

Kay and Marc smoke way too much though - seems to be a mon thg many gay films, as if all gay guys smoke. Defely worth watchg, and better than the average gay film. Historia amor gay.

Their love up agast rampant homophobia om fellow officers, Marc's fay, and ternalized homophobia wh Marc himself. Before starrg as the powerful English Labor Lear wh Ben Wishaw A Very English Sndal, Hugh Grant (Clive) played a gay aristocrat the film adaptatn of the E. The film is set early 20th century England, where homosexualy risks jail time or worse, a loss of social stat.
