The Good American

2009Movie

Jochen Hick's film portrays Tom Weise, the producer of the HustlaBall, an event originally created in order to encourage the acceptance of male prostitutes, but also to launch a rent boy website. After his parents split and, having lost all contact with them, this slightly-built former student of politics decides to go to New York at the beginning of the 1990s. Being virus-positive, he is obliged to live in the USA illegally. In fact, according to the law, he cannot even pay a visit to this country. At first Tom has a hard time eking out a living as an escort. Unable to earn enough money, he winds up on the streets without a roof over his head. In the end, he succeeds in helping Jeffrey Davis set up an internet page, rentboy.com, which, ten years later, becomes the largest website for escorts. Increasingly beset by health issues, loneliness and drug abuse, in 2006 Tom eventually finds someone with whom he can share his life. He and his African-American partner decide to go to Berlin.

50 cues

#100:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,273
The last time I was here was 12 years ago.
#200:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,074
The curry wurst... you eat them with the skin?
#300:00:10,280 --> 00:00:14,399
There's either "with' or "without'. - Ok, I'll have "with'.
#400:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,517
How long has it been since I've been here that I don't know that?
#500:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,518
Where's Sascha?
#600:00:23,320 --> 00:00:24,799
1 Euro 50, please.
#700:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,354
Was that 'with' or 'without' now?
#800:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,431
That was 'without'.
#900:00:31,000 --> 00:00:37,074
5 days of Hacking / Camping / Lectures Join May Contain Hackers: MCH2022.org
#1000:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,154
I gotta run now. - I see.
#1100:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,354
Is Sascha here? - Sascha's upstairs.
#1200:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,234
I'm Tom Weise from the "Hustlaball". - You mean that Sascha?
#1300:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,914
Yeah. Sascha from "Hustlaball".
#1400:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,629
Oh god, what is this then?
#1500:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,038
I sure wouldn't want to turn the lights on here.
#1600:01:00,360 --> 00:01:01,919
I just can't see it happening here yet.
#1700:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,153
There are movie seats... - What can't you see happening?
#1800:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,993
I just don't see the "Hustlaball" happening here.
#1900:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,556
I mean when you compare this with a club in New York,
#2000:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,597
then it's pretty awful here.
#2100:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,236
Where is Sascha? Sascha?
#2200:01:15,400 --> 00:01:16,549
Yes? - There you are.
#2300:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,791
There are these movie seats here. - They're all coming out
#2400:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,951
They're all coming out, really?
#2500:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,914
I mean, I knew a lot, but this place looks like...
#2600:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,191
I mean there's a lot to do in this club.
#2700:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,314
The difference is that naturally in New York Clubs...
#2800:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,319
There it's completely asexual and you can just let go here,
#2900:01:33,640 --> 00:01:34,630
that's the difference.
#3000:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,515
Did you catch a cold?
#3100:02:21,920 --> 00:02:23,957
No cold, I just lost my voice.
#3200:02:25,640 --> 00:02:27,039
Too much...
#3300:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,717
Too much shouting, too much chatting.
#3400:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,950
And, also a bit of a cold, yeah.
#3500:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,354
The site basically functions...
#3600:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,952
like it has for over 15 years in the gay magazines.
#3700:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,552
The rent boys place their ads here, and "rentboy.com" is also here inside.
#3800:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,550
Well, prostitution is, of course, illegal in the USA...
#3900:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,712
and it was clear to us from the start...
#4000:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,440
that we'd be dealing with legal problems.
#4100:03:50,640 --> 00:03:56,113
But like I said the print magazines, they also list escorts.
#4200:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,397
It's a different thing on “rentboy...
#4300:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,190
because everyone from all over the world can view the site.
#4400:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,153
Here, for example, is New York City, that's where most of them are.
#4500:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,393
You've got a phone number and can deal directly with the rent boy.
#4600:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,071
We're not only in London and New York, but also in every small city...
#4700:04:13,320 --> 00:04:18,076
also in Berlin and Vienna, everywhere. That's how we make money.
#4800:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,035
It's amazing that in a country where it's illegal,
#4900:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,753
we've become such a big name...
#5000:04:45,360 --> 00:04:46,794
and are pretty well recognized.
