Sinopses(1)

Satan's Brew is Fassbinder's most outrageous and hilarious film. This very black comedy about a would-be poet who imagines himself the reincarnation of Stefan George, the 19th century homosexual German romantic poet, is a biting indictment of the politics of fascism and the cult of the individual. The film is also a satire of Fassbinder himself, as portrayed by the main character, Walter Kranz. Violent slapstick, sight gags and sexual debauchery abound in Fassbinder's vision of Artaud's Theater of Cruelty. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

inglês I don’t know, I can see what he’s going for here, but this sadistic contortion act doesn’t entertain me in the least, and Fassbinder’s cold arrogance just gets under my skin. To me, the key difference is this: I don’t mistake arbitrary, twisted degradation of characters for dark humor. Fassbinder clearly has a knack for the former, while I only have a taste for the latter. ()
