#Christian Müller

[thommi-tomate]

Today Christian Kukuk won the gold medal in show jumping for Germany with the horse Checker, which is owned by Thomas and Madeleine Winter-Schulze.

Christian:

They (Thomas and Madeleine) have given me the opportunity to continue riding the horse. I am incredibly grateful that they put their trust in me and that I have now been able to repay them

random swing kids facts i have/things i noticed for your viewing pleasure

✶ willi (peter's younger brother) was initially named neddie in earlier scripts

✶ the role of peter müller was suggested to ethan hawke, and frank whaley (arvid) was the one who'd urged him on until the role was later taken by robert sean leonard

✶ the café bismarck is located in hamburg

✶ emil specifically breaks arvid's ring and pinkie finger after his run-in with the HJ boys

✶ thomas seems to have quite an interest in cowboys; "we're cowboys!" "playing cowboys and indians?" "i'm not a traitor, i'm a cowboy!" 

✶ in case it was not caught, peter's father is named wilhelm müller, though his name is only said around 4 times verbally in the film

✶ the actor for herr knopp, kenneth branagh, is not credited for the film, as he felt he'd get billed higher than both christian bale and rsl 

✶ the movie was released on march 5th, 1993, and took an estimated year to film (i had the information somewhere…lost it) 

✶ peter used to play the piano! + the bass otto uses is called a double bass an instrument in which you stand to play

✶ all the dances you see done by the boys are done by rsl and christian bale themselves

✶ arvid is often referred to as "djangoman," or "herr hitman" by his friends  in reference to other swing artists due to the boy's musical talents

✶ emil's last name is lutz

✶ the deleted scenes for this movie are incredibly hard to find, at least from what i've gathered 🙁, and the only one i've really been able to identify is a scene between peter and evey

✶ rsl was around 23-24 during the movie's release/filming, and christian bale was around 19, whilst frank whaley was nearly 30

✶ willi sleeps with a stuffed rabbit :-]

✶ it is presumed the boys are around 16-17 during the events of this film, meaning most of them would've been born around 1922-1923

✶ the last time peter speaks to his mother in the movie is after their dinner with herr knopp following arvid's death -- their last interaction (that we see) is when his mother hits him :-[

✶ at the end of the film when willi is chasing after peter in the truck, he stops in the middle of an empty road before it cuts to his face, but when he goes to chant "swing heil!" the camera pans back out to show an umbrella and newspaper at his feet when they were not there previously

✶ during his second meetup with frau linge, peter is offered a cup of tea -- he is handed it, and holds it nonetheless, but we don't see him drink anything (way to waste perfectly good tea peter)

✶ during the scene in which thomas boxes emil at the academy, there is a banner above the doors that reads "flink wie windhunde, zah wie leder hart wie kruppstahl," which can translate to "nimble as greyhounds, tough as leather, hard as krupp steel." krupp steel was often used to create firearms during wwii

✶ in the scene after thomas boxes emil and the boys are at arvid's place, there's a shot in which we see arvid tuning/tinkering with his guitar with his two uninjured fingers -- beside him is a poster of django reindhart playing guitar with only two fingers, one of his staples

✶ peter and willi sleep in the same room

✶ the last time we see mama klara is at the beginning of the film when herr knopp first visits the muller home -- she comes out of the kitchen saying "do you have news of my son?" (wilhelm muller), before peter's mother redirects her -- however, she is mentioned later on during the dinner scene between the muller family and herr knopp near the end of the movie: “are you sure your mother-in-law wouldn’t like to join us?” “yes. it’s not that, it’s just that none of these rich foods would be good for her.”

✶ there was a scene in the original script at the beginning of the film just after peter leaves his home for school in which he calls up thomas to converse about the man they'd watched jump into the river the night before -- after this scene we are given a more in depth view of thomas' family dynamic (a tense one at that)

✶ on the topic of thomas' family, thomas' father is named dietrich

✶ if it was not already obvious, the film is specifically set in 1939, during the absolute beginnings of the outbreak of wwii

✶ otto is last seen during arvid's funeral (he just disappears for the rest of the movie i dont even know) 

✶ in the scene in which arvid commits, the camera pans to a selection of photos he had on his wall -- of the few are two of their friend group before it fell apart, and emil is visible in swing kid attire -- this is the only time in the film we see him out of HJ uniform

ok thats all i have for rn

footballers proposing/getting proposed to

requested by my homeboy @sztrapacska!!! ty luv <3 ik i cant pull the "i HaD sChOoL" excuse for my lateness this time so i'll jus be honest,,, i got hit w the inspiration bug n wrote a whole ass fic. abt a proposal. so i was a lil distracted. speaking of proposals actually,,,

leo: tbh it could go either way, with him proposing or getting proposed to. in the moment, he'll be really calm and collected, not at all like youd imagine someone who just experienced one of the happiest times of their life to be like. but the second he gets home hes bursting into happy tears.

ney: he gets proposed to, only cause he straight up kinda forgets about marriage as a concept. hes like "yeah we're dating and everythings fine and cool so why bother." so when leo gets sick and tired of waiting for his ass and pops the question himself neys caught TOTALLY off guard.

christian: one morning he'll be talking to his partner about wedding plans, n when he notices the extremely confused look on their face hes like "...oh SHIT i knew i was forgetting something."

lewy: oh lewandowski my beloved. hes a gun jumper. he rushes to propose prematurely without thinking of whether he and thomas are really ready for it. in fact,,, if you would like to know more about said proposal,, maybe you could read more about it here,,, (yeah its a shameless plug ok)

muller: angsty fic that i poured my heart and soul into aside, lets say thomas says yes. within five minutes of getting engaged, EVERYONES gonna know about it. hes running up to his friends and shoving his left hand in their faces so they can get a good look at the ring n hes like "!!! ROBERT AND I ARE GETTING MARRIED!!!" its very cute, actually.

trent: drunkenly proposes to and marries an equally drunk robbo because they thought it would be funny.

sergio: though he'll deny it to ANYONE who even suggests it, hes the BIGGEST fuckin romantic when it comes to luka. so when it comes time to ask him to marry him hes not pulling any punches. dude plans a whole candlelit anniversary dinner at home with romantic spanish music playing in the background. how can luka say no.

luka: lukas not stupid, he sees the proposal coming from a MILE away (his friends suddenly inquiring about his ring size, sergio acting particularly jittery the weeks leading up to their anniversary, etc), but that doesnt mean hes any less happy. its weird, even though he totally sees it coming, he still cries like a mf (tears of joy, ofc).

alisson: now, he wants virgil to marry him, but he also wants to experience getting proposed to. so what does he do??? he "accidentally" leaves engagement ring catalogs lying around his and virgils place, and makes sure the tv always happens to be on the channel that shows reruns of say yes to the dress.

virgil: falls for it hook line and sinker. within a month of alisson putting his little plan into action, virgils dishing out the money for a ring. when it comes time to actually ask the question, hes SUPER nervous. so nervous, in fact, dude straight up forgets about the whole kneeling part. he jus takes out the ring and,,, asks. ali wouldnt have it any other way.

“Living in hope does not rid us of the problems we have in life. That has always been so. Never in our history, since the original sin, has there been an ‘earthly paradise’ […] Human misery exists. Our frailty is real. Placing our hope in God therefore does not mean the elimination of suffering but, rather, opening it to a horizon of understanding that in any situation, however difficult and tragic it may be, there can be a fertility, a fruit, because suffering, having been shouldered once and for all by Christ, can awaken and ripen love.”

La serie “Oktoberfest 1900: birra e sangue” racconta in modo complesso e sontuoso la lotta tra due dinastie della birra per la supremazia alla più grande festa popolare del mondo, portando gli spettatori in una Monaco fantastica e misteriosa all’inizio del XX secolo, e svelando un moderno mito sull’amore fatale e l’inarrestabile ascesa del capitalismo.

Translation:

I am celebrating this evening with a worthy setting, namely a Müller's mix

Yep, and I have to say, hats off, Checker.

Hats off, Christian Kukuk

Thank you very much, Ludger Beerbaum.

Thanks to everyone who was involved.

This is my gold medal and you have won gold, dear Christian gold at the Olympics with Checker.

It was breathtaking.

I trained this morning, thank God also to our trainer, we only had training at lunchtime today.

I was able to watch the ride live.

Not only did I have goose bumps, but I was also damn nervous.

I had at least 15 beats, more pulse and the jump-off alone.

So hats off to you.

Hippological greetings to all.

Equestrian sport in Germany is something to be proud of.

And dear Christian, Christian Kukuk, you deserve it for what you've achieved with Checker in the last year and a half alone.

Hats off to you, I am absolutely thrilled.

And now let it rip, let's celebrate.

Yes, best wishes, bye, I'm looking forward to it.

Good bye.
