And speakin...Veidt fan chiming in here--great post! And speaking of gay angles and Casablanca, there's also <a href="http://aikainkauna.tumblr.com/post/60894412719/casablanca-spot-the-guys-off-caligari-top" rel="nofollow">this.</a> So not one but two of the Nazis were queer refugees from the real ones. Also, it's refreshing to see a post that mentions these connections without automatically assuming Strasser is some stereotype of an evil homosexual--that seems to happen a lot these days, because what came across as a suave playboy in the 40s can come across as camp today. It'd be a shame considering he was played by an actual bisexual so big on LGBT rights that he probably wouldn't ever have agreed to play that type. So thanks for reminding people of what kind of an awesome guy he was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
