Der Bewegte Mann (The "Moved" or "Compelled" man in German) is a fun, original, fast paced German gay comedy that was a rare hit with mainstream American audiences. The film follows the drama of straight hunky beefcake Axel (Til Schweiger) when he is befriended by a well meaning gay in Cologne, who offers him a place to stay when he is kicked out of his girlfriend's apartment. The film's pace is good and never boring complemented by the perfect soundtrack which is a mix of house and cute German Schlager tunes. The dialog is clever and quite easy to understand with a little German proficiency. A witty and savvy foreign comedy must-see.
