I finally got round to watching this film last night. It is very good yet fairly bizarre, whilst compellingly original.

Just one question to anyone who has seen it...

Is the German guy who lets Shakespeare 'be free' at the end some sort of religious figure? It adds up y'see.

- Everyone thinks they are dead, when they get radio communication etc
- This would mean they were in purgatory
- Most of the mean go mad and therefore fail the test of purgatory and go to hell
- Shakespeare tries to save the German guy, who I think is the feller who is sort of in charge of purgatory or gatekeeper to heaven/hell (St Paul, I think...)
- The religious soldier is the first to go crazy, which has some significance
- Then at the end the exact same scenario occurs again

You reckon this is right or I have just tried to look too deeply?

And when Shakespeare is set free at the end, does he go to heaven or back to life ?

i just finished watching the film for a third time. the german soldier could be some kind of religious figure from what you are saying but i havn't ever looked at it in that way. maybe the german soldier is some kind of gatekeeper there to give judgment on weather people are worthy of heaven.
