QUEER ASS FILM CLUB: BURNT MONEY
A sexy, intense crime thriller from Argentina, BURNT MONEY (Plata Quemada) has been compared to the blockbuster hits “Ocean’s Eleven” and “Reservoir Dogs” and even hailed as a gay “Bonnie & Clyde.” The film is based on a true story that is legend in Argentinean crime history. Dark and brooding, yet stylish and sensual, the film is the mesmerizing, unnerving story of a group of violent bank robbers, two of whom are gay lovers known in criminal circles as “The Twins.” After a big robbery ends in a bloody shootout, the trio hides in Uruguay, where shimmering tensions escalate into a fiery climax worthy of a John Woo thriller.
