Review of The Art of Being Straight (2009) by Julio C — 31 May 2011

Share

Tweet

Una comedia de closet, sobre los dilemas de un chico que debe aceptar su sexualidad viviendo en un ambiente de heteros. Divertida y entretenida, aunque no del todo sobresaliente, adecuada para una sesiÃ³n de cine relajada, sin esperar un argumento complejo y contenido trascendental.
