Synopsis

George is a charismatic and adventurous young woman, born in an old catholic family. In her teens, she falls in love with a female teacher named Sybil. Devastated by her lover’s eventual suicide, some years later, George embarks on a reckless journey to the depths of Pigalle’s nightlife in the 60’s. After an encounter with Odette, a very wealthy and attractive older woman who offers her money and gifts in return for sexual favors, George becomes Gigola, a kind of gigolo for women only. –São Paulo International Film Festival

MARK IS SUSPENDED IN GAFFA

29Dec11

Another one of those stupid films about a sexually hedonistic person who treats people like shit and basically gets away with it. The lead actress is way to pretty to play the role of an androgynous female cad, but I guess "marketing considerations" had to be considered. Nobody, not even a small child would mistake her for a man (as we see in the film). An insult to our intelligence. Only if you like watching crap.
