I get it, he always wanted to BE somebody, a hero in a way and in the end it's ironic how he does become "somebody" and a "hero" without his consent and to a cause he didn't want to be a part of. As a gigolo, he wasn't anybody but he chose it, whereas in death he didn't.

I laughed and frowned a good deal in this film. Thanks for the upload!

2 things I'm not satisfied:
1. When Paul got shot and died I was like WTF? Cuz it took me 1 minute to find out that sudden dropping down was not a starting of a guerrila war but Paul getting shot.
2. The gossip girls (No puns intended) were just ridiculous this time. Where were they going?!?!?! Into the woods?!?!

I don't find this movie so unpleasant...It's even touching somehow, I mean not only at the end, but all the way through, here and there. The beauty of the pictures, the permanent lack of real action (wich is the tragedy of the character's life), and this whole crowd of nobody people (the dancers and actors, the prostitute with the dogs at the beginning, Marlene's character, the widow, etc.)... It does have some kind of poetry, don't you think ? Like a senseless and crual tale.

thank you so much for posting this, it was a very good film. bowie should do more acting, he's so good, better than many of todays top starts.
may i ask, where are parts 1, 2 & 9?

@Dehzee - the final punchline is that he's a whore even in death. It's a very sophisticated kind of humor, at the same time it is also weaved with a certain level of tragic truth, otherwise the whole film would simply be a farce. In regards to the gay thing, ti's to put the hypocritical element into things & insult the nazis. In a way, ALL the others are a joke too, "whores" for something or someone.

I can't be the only one disturbed at him dressed in a nazi uniform, of course it's not portrayed at all in a 'positive' light, not in the slightest. Still, it kinda makes me want to be ill...

@Dehzee Oh, indeed. David Bowie <3

@magenta1000 I think the best part was the visual aspect of the movie, everything and everyone was so pretty...
He can be my gigolo any day even if he is 60 odd!
