    Shrewder than you'd think and not half as dumb as it looks.

    It is an entertaining bit of fluff, with a few engaging performances and enough visual panache to keep audiences diverted and amused.

    Rather like the film Shortbus in its exploration of sexual healing, Boy Culture examines the relationship of heart and lust. A good sense of humor and lots of overlapping plot follow the Mame philosophy that Life's a banquet (and more poor suckers are starving). Enjoy.… Expand
