Short set
Today's movie was a group of short films by Marco Berger and Marcelo Monaco
It is called Sexual Tension and there is plenty of that. No consummation. Just tension.
Sexual tension can be pretty sexy!
It is all rather artfully done.
One thing about the goings on between men is that there is always some sexual tension.
I say that categorically without any proof. But I mean it in the widest possible terms.
It begins with male strutting, goes to competition and ends with something more complicated. If sexuality is involved which it often is with or without the people's consciousness of it then there are funny outcomes that seem unrelated to the actual stuff going on.
Now, as a gay man that seems to make a lot of sense. But I know that many or most straight men will not buy it. Buddies, work partners and friends do not have any sexual bonds.
OK. Uh huh.
Moving on from there these shorts are pretty good as such things go. All meet the basic requirement of being smart and entertaining at the same time.
The film makers have made successful feature films.
