What makes this film such fun is the knowledge that it's origins lie in truth. The two main parts are acted so well and you can genuinely feel the anguish as sexuality and stigma are faced my not only the leads but also others in the cast. There is wit....there is humour....there is confusion....there is bravery.....but most of all there is a joining together of people all in the end working towards a common goal and proud of it!!! I particularly love the 'arm wrestling' scene....when you get to it you'll understand what I mean...as big bad guy learns that sometimes the best way to succeed is to lose the battle yet win the war!!! Don't be put off by what this film is about....it may appear at first not to be everyone's cup of tea....watch it....let it warm you and make you laugh....you won't regret it!!!!
if you loved Calender Girls and enjoy funny films with a subtle message then this film is a must for you.
Price shoes is a factory which over many of generations have produced quality sturdy boring mens shoes.
The latest of the Prices has decided shoes are not for him and moved away, having to return to pick up the pieces on the death of his father.
He discovers the business is somewhat lacking in the one thing every good business needs - buyers - and realises that something radical must be done to save the family factory.
A chance meeting with a transvestite with a broken heel turns his world around.
I adored this film and will watch it again and again with the same enjoyment - wat are you waiting for people - go buy go buy!
