  • Dean Reed, the only guy ever to join the communist party and buy a yacht in the same day.

  • @ossarider

    Dont`be so sure. I know some popular writers for example, in Soviet Estonia bought every kind of things, even yachts.

  • I wonder when this is coming out...

  • @Constantinesgirl The movie has been out since 2006 or so on DVD in Germany.

  • communist bastard.

  • @ossarider and you?

  • @ossarider bastard capitalist

  • Ricky Nelson defected after Garden Party.Rick Nelson:I do not recognise this man.

  • Dean = big shmock.

  • Americans are so afraid of socialism it's laughable, Europe rocks.

  • America saved Europe from NATIONAL SOCIALISM. (What an idiot).

  • An eternal US BIG LIE. Nazism was fought by several countries. The united States should thank countries as England, France, Denmark, etc for having put the most effort and blood against Nazism. Come on!! It would have been the same to the United States a Nazy Europe than a Non-nazy Europe??

  • Sorry! I should have writen this before. I think my responce to your comment was not very good. A nazy Europe would have affected mainly big economic interests, not those of most us people, and would have affected the capacity of the powerful behind your politics of abusing in the world. No real reason for us people to thank any country. Anyway I don´t think Europe has to thank The United States for anything.

  • The "nazy" would have not affected most people?!? Um, OK....(eye roll)

    Don't thank the USA, thank the Chinese.

    "He who bites the hand that feeds him will lick the boot that kicks him"

  • You didn`t understand. I ment a nazy Europe wouldn`t have affected directly most people of the United States. It would have been something similar to what the Soviet Union did. Probably they would have deffended more economic interests through certain kind of imperialism more than ideological positions, what would have gone against the economic interests of the powerful in your country, too.

  • The USSR never declared war on the USA. "Nazy" Germany did on Dec 8, 1941.

    So much for not directly affecting the US.

  • I know USSR never declared war on the USA and Nazi Germany did. I don`t understad what you try to tell me with that. Well, take care.

  • @Shades40 your 100% correct. Americans think socialism is communism after years of indoctronation and propaanda.

  • this SONG is unbelievably cool with the remix, anyone know if there's a full version..

  • Soundtrack CD REVOLUCIONARIOS by Monomango

  • Thank you, you are the best

  • Renate Blume was cute.

  • Man BIENENENPABST,jetzt hast Du mal recht,denn DEAN war um EINIGES besser als Elvis Presley.

  • ja ,er war besser im doppelleben führen,wasser predigen und wein trinken,darin war er echt top!

  • den kann man ja wohl kaum mit elvis vergleichen...

  • Great folks, now let's go queuing up for cooking oil...

  • Does anybody know the name of the song?

  • "Railway Cowboy" by Monomango

    It's a remix of "This Train" by Dean Reed

  • Dalai Lama? Marketing invent

  • dean reed ,ein mann ohne glied...

  • dean meet castro, mao too ? when and where ?

  • I hate this move and everything that's around it, I hate the title already. Why is it a "strange" story when someone goes wherever the fuck he wants to go.

  • Because people in the so-called 'German Democratic Republic' didn't enjoy the right to go wherever they wanted to.

  • Cuba, Eastern Europe, Asia...that's enough for me and it was enough for Dean Reed. So what?

  • That's enough for you? What a narrow-minded attitude. Dean Reed travelled to Latin America and Western Europe as well as in the US. People sneer at Americans for not traveling outside their own country, but at least it's not because they aren't allowed to.

  • Why is not going to western states going nowhere? I don't feel like going to the U.S. and so on, I don't like it there, so yes, this is enough for me.

  • But despite your ignorance or political view, the story of Dean Reed is quite fascinating. But it's also fascinating looking at the story true the eyes of world politics at that time. No doubt he was a tool for the socialist regimes in the eastern europe

  • He was a "tool" for the government like the Dalai Lama is a Western tool against China today. Don't tell me stories.

  • Well, if you believe that, you'll believe that North Korea is a socialist paradise. Anyway, China is effectively capitalist now.

  • Why should I believe that? We're talking about Dean Reed's time when there has been Cold War and the United States being very aggressive towards communism. The fact that capitalim has obviously won over communism doesn't make it better all its lifetime. What's bothering me is that Dean Reed is treated like a naive, insane child that "has sadly chosen the wrong side."

  • leggete: bloodbath di Noam Chomsky (letterato americano)... guardate poi cosa hanno fatto in chile, e in altri paesi tenuti ostaggio per lo sfruttamento capitalistico delle materie prime. americani leggete e ascoltate i vostri intellettuali di sinistra John Red, Woody Guthrie, Noam Chomsky, Angela Davis, Rap Brawn, Malcom X... il colonialismo non è mai finito.

    viva il Che

  • ma i veri nemici del nazional comunismo erano comunisti puri. veri marxisti. il padre della rivoluzione di ottobre trotski fato uccidere dal nazional comunista stalin. vorrei inoltre ricordarvi che pol pot l'hanno sconfitto i vieth cong. i comunisti di ho chi min, quelli che avevano diritto di autodeterminarsi che si sono battuti contro il colonialismo francese e poi contro il neocolonialismo americano.

  • daltronde basti pensare ai regimimi fascisti e fondamentalisti che hanno saputo creare in tutto il mondo...regimi fantoccio che hanno permesso di perpetrare forme nascoste di colonialismo. regimi altrttanto sanguinari.

  • è vero... i regimi comunisti di stampo nazionalista hanno prodotto dei mostri...

    ma i mostri si trovavano concentrati alla casa bianca...

  • Nazi scum.

  • Elvis wannabee who got stuck behind the Curtain selling his talent to a bunch of corrupt bureacratic regimes oppressing people.

  • He never wanted to be anyhing like Elvis, he actually had no talent, the regimes he sold it to weren't more cruel than today's, end of story. All of you have no idea.

  • dean reed war bei DDR bürgern, die bisschen was in der birne hatten und das system durchschaut hatten und nur raus wollten ,ungeheuer "beliebt"...

  • Und dein Punkt ist...???

  • Comment removed

  • nee nich böse DDR...böser ulbricht,honecker und deren gefolgsleute und unterstützer...

  • You have no excuse not to grasp the concept of articles (a, an, the). All the languages of Switzerland use them. So it's not just ignorance, it's stupidity. Sad stupidity. The kind that informs your opinion of Reed, and of me. And "so you are"--what the fck? Come on, at a certain point you have to consider taking your own life. How stupid and inarticulate can you get, and still want to carry on?

  • An amazing man, whose life and work have been obscured here in America... most Americans are unaware of his existence. I was unaware myself. He was clearly a man with a great mind, and a great heart.

  • You´re not serious! Clearly man with a great mind? He was a supporter of comunistic regime, not a good person. The regime killed many people all around the world, mostly in the former Soviet Union district.

  • why must a supporter of marxism be an "idiot" or a supporter of the killings that happened in some communist states? I think the idea of marxism isn't bad, but some of the leaders who misused it (Pol Pot, Stalin, ...) are.

    I think the CIA acted more criminal when helping Pinochet to revolt against Allende than Reed did when he supported the Unidad Popular.

    I think he was a great person who really lived his idea...

  • "He was a supporter of communist regime, not a good person"

    He wasn't a good man cause of he political beliefs?For you a good man is a liberal one for example?You are another idiot's propaganda's scum.We have already seen what the democratic or republican governments have done.Much more disaster than Soviet Union idiot.You learn to hate communism and you don't know not only the reason but what is communism.I believe that communism is bad both in theory and action.But i know why.IDIOT

  • I´m not both scum and idiot. I have not used any rude word in my commentary, contrary to you. I have not offended you personally, so I suppose you must be a very dull person, when you react so spiky. BTW, you should learn more about the regime I talk about, you have no idea, what was going on in the former soviet district.

  • where can i get the song of this video?

  • muy admirable y a la vez tan poco conocido, una lastima su muerte, quizás que habría hecho con las políticas actuales de Bush.

  • I've just watched the documentary (I'm from Turin and in these days there is the Turin Film Festival). Great documentary! Really!

  • Interesting video, thanks for sharing. I had to watch this several times!

  • Cieszę się, że taki film powstał. Pamiętam o Deanie codziennie. Film chciałabym zobaczyć w całości, bo brakuje wspomnień o Nim i filmów oraz nagrań w Polsce. Szkoda, że o Nim zapomniano. MałgorzatazB.

  • I would really like the music, I am guessing it is a re-mix by someone, but can someone please tell me who? Thanks.

  • The soundtrack for the documentary "The Red Elvis" was made by MONOMANGO. It's available on the CD "REVOLUCIONARIOS". Visit the Dean Reed website: deanreed [dot] de

  • Thank you =)

  • Long Live the Great New Slavic Union! Honour!

  • How can you talk about talent and mention Tom Cruise?

    Oh Top Gun, Cocktail, ... what marvelous talent!

    Pathetic! I think Dean Reed was much more talented than most american actors. The only "problem" was that he was a communist.

  • Bailando con Arafat...eso no lo hacía cualquiera!

  • ¡Se reivindica la leyenda!
