Let itch, buddy 2. Part - The Bullenkloster is a German sex film from 1973 and the successor to the film Let itch, buddy .
action
Heiner's marriage is broken. After the divorce, he worked as a miner again and was housed in a men's dormitory, the so-called “ bull monastery ”. Here he meets several former cronies who also ended up here, including the incorrigible Hitler fan Kutter. After an affair with the cleaning lady Trudi, he and his buddies are drawn to a nightspot.
Jupp is also after Trudi, but she is picky and asks him, as a former boxer, to get back into the ring for her sake. Jupp is defeated, however, and so the winner at Trudi gets his money's worth. Jupp then takes refuge in the alcohol.
Heiner's ex-wife Gisela is now working as a prostitute again. She is found by Heiner, and the film ends with the hope of a new family happiness.
additional
The film offers, atypical for its genre, a continuous plot. Several scenes are quite violent and suggest the right of the stronger. The Bullenkloster was the second most successful German film of 1973.
Reviews
- Drastically staged sex film based on motifs by HH Claer. (Heyne Film Lexicon, 1996)
- Sex scenes, various fights and the appearance of stupid guest workers add up to an unpleasant whole. ( Lexicon of International Films )
- As in the first part filmed at original locations, part 2 also shows the living conditions of German pals of his time. A seldom cautious, but often haunting image of its protagonists emerges from its dreary - nevertheless seemingly romantic - environment in which THE BULL MONASTERY is set and told in a cinematic way. In his template, the author Hans Henning Claer already told very vividly the mentality of the people in the coal pot: their fears, needs, but also their hopes and the associated escape from everyday life through alcohol and sex. The social fringe groups of that time - guest workers and homosexuals - are presented in the film as bizarre and quirky characters who seem far from being integrated or recognized. From today's perspective that seems strange, of course, but viewed in the context of the era it is remarkably realistic. Despite its episodic nature, THE BULL MONASTERY counts as the most straightforward film in the entire Buddy series. No other part positions its characters so clearly and works towards a real finale in its narrative structure. Many small happy endings ultimately lead to an - apparently - conciliatory overall picture. A film about friendship and love, a successful balancing act between real drama and sex film.
