the aristocrats

Intriguing buzz about this movie that has me thinking I might actually make an effort to see it - even now knowing the basic framework of the joke.

Being a clean-living well-bred chappie, I had not the faintest idea what it was all about but was getting a bit fed up with the endlessly coy allusions.

Having delved into the bowels of the Net, I am an informed man, including that Salon finds "the picture itself ... so ebullient and celebratory that it practically beams with perverted innocence." (More below, if the link holds)

To save other innocents time and trouble, here are my findings.

• The low-down
• The trailer (rather good)
• The web site (pleasantly flamboyant)
• Salon's take

You know, the Lynwood is so cool with what it shows, it might just run this one (in which case, TJ's cautionary opening preamble will be as worth attending as the movie itself.)
