The Gigolos

I found the Gigolos to be light hearted, as well as having a subtle undertone of dark humour throughout. As someone who hasn't seen anything apart from big American blockbusters recently, I found it was an interesting film about a world and lifestyle I previously knew little about. It managed to keep my attention for the duration which is no mean feat. Artistically, I liked the way the film was shot, and for some brief moments I forgot that the two lead characters were in fact actors. The lack of harsh lighting helps to keep the venues and circumstances fairly moody and atmospheric. The music,clothing and styling had retro influences which I like. The film gave off an air of "cool" without trying to - nicely done!
