POST MODERN
Today's NYTimes Best 1176 Film was
with Christina Ricci, Lisa Kudrow and a great looking bunch of guys.
It is self referential to the extreme. Ricci is a smart ass voice over commenting on the story line of which she is the main part.
On the other hand, it is a wise and life affirming story with very positive, yet knowing and honest, things to say about gay men and their families.
We saw it when it was around and really liked it and I like it still.
It might take two viewings or subtitles to get all the jokes which flow like honey from start to finish.
Parts of it were filmed just down the street from us at the Royal Sun hotel. We have been to look at the room!
That is not why I love this film.
I will give it a 5 out of Netflix5.
Oh. It is worth the viewing to find out what the opposite of sex is.
