    • Trivia
      On October 27, 2005, a Paris court decided that the film may not be shown anymore after August 23, 2006, because of copyright and trademark issues. In addition, producer Jürgen Brünning had to pay a fine of 17500 Euro. Plaintiff was the daughter of Alberto Korda, photographer of the famous Ché Guevara portrait.

      Gudrun: The Revolution is my boyfriend.

    • Alternate versions
      The UK DVD under the title 'The Raspberry Reich' released by Peccadillo Pictures is cut by 3 minutes 42 seconds, to remove explicit sexual detail which cannot be justified by context (although some detail was allowed to remain) for an 18 certificate. The DVD under the title 'The Revolution is my Boyfriend', released by Millivres Prowler is the full uncut version, rated R18, which means it can only be sold in licensed sex shops.

    The Revolution is my Boyfriend
    No spoilers, i think

    I have to say that I had a good time watching this movie. I saw it on my birthday, it was playing at the University's Doc Films theater. Wednesday was "history of porn" night, so my friends and I decided to go watch. I think you should see the movie as a comedy (with gay sex) and not a funny porno? I cracked up when the phrases would scroll across the screen: "Heterosexuality is the opiate of the masses", "There can't be revolution without a homosexual revolution", and my personal fave "The revolution is my boyfriend." I actually want a t-shirt like the one in the movie. Oh, and Bruce La Bruce was there, and did a little Q&A session.
