CGiii Comment
Apart from the premise being quite ridiculous...the film is littered with lazy mistakes.
You can see the ending coming a mile off and with all the giant leaps of faith that you have to take to stay with it, you are likely to be very disappointed that you did.
Not even the poorly staged drag acts can brighten this dull affair.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Nicole and Jean-Marie Kunstler are a nice, hard working couple who have been married for 15 years. They operate a dry cleaning business that keeps them both too busy to take a vacation, or to change their routine. A fateful trip to a drag club leads them to encounter Loic and Marilyn, a brother-sister drag queen performing team. Their shows fascinate the couple, as both Nicole and Jean-Marie find themselves growing more and more attached to Loic. Loic brings to the surface all of their suppressed desires and emotions - willingly and unwillingly. A psychological examination into the effects one attractive young man's entrance into the lives of an ordinarily seeming couple could have.
