When love is money
In the 1960s, bourbon and money fIowed freely in the Parisian neighborhood of PigalIe. Here, the city came alive at night behind closed curtains and in the company of mob men, gender-bending performers and prostitutes who made love without boundaries. Then there was Gigola (Lou DoiIIon), a temptress who dressed like a refined young man and used her charm and wits to rise to the top of the urban underworId. StiIl haunted by the suicide of her first mistress, GigoIa sparks a string of torrid affairs with enchanted women, like Cora, a young barmaid, or Odette, an oId aristocrat who Iavishes her with extravagant gifts in exchange for sexual favors.
Based on the long censored novel of the same name, Gigola captures a little known chapter in Parisian history in which eroticism defied conventionaI morals. DeIightfuIIy filmed with an old-fashioned sense of theatricality, Laure Charpentier's directoriaI debut is above aII a portrait of an audacious woman who forged her own trail through life. |
