When someone first told me about this play turned film, I thought it was the oddest recommendation. The premise: a gay man, seemingly trapped in communist Germany, has his manhood whacked to marry an American GI. The operation gets botched and he's left with the angry inch.

He goes on to become a struggling rock star, and hilaritary and drama ensue.

Damn, if it isn't one of the best movies I've ever seen- and my wall is lined with them.

Watch it, you will not be disappointed.


Movie at Amazon.

With only 1", I'd be disappointed.

My gf's friend told me about this flick, she couldn't quite explain it to me but she said it was good :)

It's one of the best movies ever. Touching, very human drama and humor.
