Negative Positive
Title: Springtime For Hitler
Review: I think I understand what Camp is. "The Damned" is a film taking upon itself the allegorical rise and fall of Nazi Germany in such an overindulgent manner that one cringes and giggles at the same time. I guess Gay folks everywhere can blame Luchino Visconti the "great" director for making a laughing stock out of homosexuals in Nazi SS garb. Mel Brooks realized in his film "The Producers" that Nazi's are damn funny, but not even Brook's vision could foresee the downfall of the Essenbeck family as the currents of early Nazi bloodshed swirls about. The uniforms are Art Deco at its worst. The young blonde, Aryan, cross-dressers are a bathhouse dream until they're lined up against the wall. Rome may have had Caligula, but The Reich had blonde pedophiles. What a thrill to see Helmut Berger swishing about in Marlene Dietrich bodice and stockings. I watched the whole thing and I'm going to end this review to take a shower.
Is the review positive or negative?
