Closet erotica
Today's film is actually three short films bound together under one idea; hiding out in plain sight.
The three guys are all good looking and bent toward other guys but not quite getting there. When they do it is kind of incomplete. Whatever they are looking for is beyond the current situation.
Le Clan / Three Dancing Slaves (2005)
French, hence the indirection, and written by Christopher Honoré who has done so well in some other films I have enjoyed.
Nicolas Cazalé is one of the slaves and, like the rest, he is lovely to watch. He is the reason that I got this film to watch. But all that brooding!
I don't plan to buy this film as once was enough for me. At the end I feel tightly bound up and need to expel something. Like these guys, I have something to do but don't know where or how. And I lack the courage to try it out.
I don't mean me. I just mean that is the closely message I get from the films.
The scene is set in Geneva and it is beautiful. Great backdrops. And everyone is good looking.
I will give it a 3 out of Netflix5 because I will not be going back for more.
