In prison, he finds friendship & (maybe) love from an unlikely source. The trailer: reader and Riobard 1 1 Quote
Members Riobard Posted March 12, 2022 Members Posted March 12, 2022 Oh good. I can see it this coming Friday or weekend a few minutes walk from my home, and The Worst Person in the World today. It’s been over two years since attending a movie theatre and not all international films end up on iTunes. tm_nyc 1 Quote
Members Riobard Posted March 23, 2022 Members Posted March 23, 2022 Bleak but certainly riveting and an eye-opening history lesson as the criminalization and judicial cruelty was West Germany while East Germany did not have the same outdated legislation on the books. The type of ending is not unexpected but the specific way in which it is played out is startlingly clever. Quote
