is he gay?
in the scene in the bunker, talking about how men can live without women, its pretty odd stuff.
"i dont understand captain"
neither do i dude.
Stransky knew Triebig was gay, having seen him together with the orderly, and decided to make Triebig his tool, sensing that someone willing to do his bidding would come in handy. The dialogue was just his way of toying with Triebig, cornering him so Triebig had no escape.
sharei figured that out as i was posting, but thanks a lot for a good answer.
amazing and uncomfortable scene, the way it plays out is so odd and insane, just like life.
I didn't realise that. I suspected the two guys were guy but I thought that Stransky was gay too and was trying to basically sexually harass them or potentially pave the way for a rape.
But either way, it did a great job of letting us know just how much of a creepy bastard Stransky is haha.
