Is 'Gigolò per caso' worth watching?
The plot reads a bit like a cross between John Turturro's 'Fading Gigolo' and Ron Schneider's 'Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo' and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Expect some seriously hilarious moments interwoven with poignancy and romance. We're going to be watching it.
