What I'm Watching #192


boystown, originally uploaded by Randuwa.

Chuecatown (a.k.a. Boystown) is a spanish film set in the gay neighborhood of Madrid (not Chicago). The plot has a drop dead gorgeous and ruthless real estate developer murdering off the intransigent old ladies in the neighborhood when they refuse to sell him their condos. Enter a feckless gay couple with an obnoxious chain-smoking mother-in-law, a detective with more phobias than Monk and a closeted gay son in tow, and, well, you have the makings of an hilarious comedy!--or so says the DVD box. In reality, it's a cute little movie. Nothing to die laughing over, but it's sweet and funny in a Mediterranean sort of way.
