Free Fall - Freier Fall
morrobay:
As for conflict/struggle in their relationship, one direction is Marc's jealousy. Albeit a cliché, it exists on some level in a lot of relationships, it already reared its ugly head in Kay's apartment. And if Marc and Kay do decide to try it on, Kay will be so much more accustomed to the lifestyle - Marc would have a lot of learning and growing to do, I can see lots of friction there.
Kay has already been patient with Marc, but he'd have to know that he would be the "leader" (I hesitate to use that word, but he will be showing Marc a lot about something with which Marc has no experience), and allow for mistakes on both sides.

Or, the difficulties could be around the fact that Bettina won't let Marc see his son. She's so bitter, even more so if she finds out that Marc and Kay are together, that she tries to legally keep him from having visitation rights. This would cause conflict, not only between Marc & Bettina, but Marc & Kay, as they try to get used to being together, at the same time having to deal with this outside problem. I don't know anything about German law in this matter.
But I think Bettina could feel so betrayed that she would go in this direction, at least until she had enough time to get over it, and realize that keeping her son away from his father is more of a punishment for the boy than for Marc. It could also be played out in a positive light, so it would end well.

I think, if this would be the case, there's no room for Kay at all in the story. That's such a heavy sitiuation for a father. Marc would do anything to see his son. Except that: I don't know how this works in the USA, but in the Netherlands is almost impossible to legally keep a father from having visitation rights. Being unfaithful or having homosexual contacts makes him not a bad father. (Hopefully in the US the same?).

Nancy: Someone is watching freier fall and twittering about it. I found out that you don't need a twitter account to read other open accounts.
If you google: twitter @jonhamms you see his account.

Another question in a review: would this movie be as good as it is with other actors?
My answer: not a chance.
The chemistry between Max/Hanno is unique and that's what makes the movie so credible and intense.
