dude Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Movie Review Naked Boys Singing! (2007) The cast of "Naked Boys Singing." October 12, 2007 Swinging Singers In ?Naked Boys Singing!? 10 grown men (including one natural redhead) go full monty while belting out show tunes and high-kicking like muscular Rockettes. The show?s injury log must make for very colorful reading. Save for an occasional arty flourish, the film simply restages the popular revue that since its 1998 Los Angeles premiere has taken bouncing genitalia to raunch-deprived audiences worldwide. Alternately campy and coy, smirky and serious, the 16 original songs (newly arranged by Troy Christian) celebrate the male anatomy ? and the gay lifestyle ? with playful wit and unabashed explicitness. Sound quality is excellent; whether extolling the delights of a bris or the anxiety of a high-school locker room, every penile synonym rings clear. Quiet moments are few; the heartfelt emotion in ?Kris Look What You Missed? ? and in the lovely voice of Jaymes Hodges ? is a welcome oasis between bouts of antic phallocentrism. Yet ?Naked Boys Singing!,? with its complete lack of sleaze, is more likely to have you pondering the cast members? skin care routines than their vital statistics. And though stage shows are always best experienced in their natural habitat, few will benefit as much as this one from the eventual consolations of ?pause? and ?zoom.? NAKED BOYS SINGING!
