As an DL Nuyorican, I came across the bay Puerto Rican movie, Barrio Boy. After watching the trailer online at Amazon Prime video, I decided to purchase the movie to be apart of my movie collection. Quique, an attractive hot Nuyorican downlow barber living in Brooklyn, embarks on an erotically charged odyssey of self-discovery. He falls in love with an average white boy from Ireland. For a Nuyorican Brooklyn, New York barber in a macho world, he faces a tough road ahead when his attraction develops for an average white guy.
As an Afro Nuyorican, I was turned off that the DL Boricua's love interest was an average white guy and not a hot Puerto Rican or Dominican guy in New York City. This is one of the best Latino (Puerto Rican) gay movies that focuses on a DL Nuyorican of Puerto Rican ancestry.
However, I came to like the white Irish gay character, Kevin. It's difficult being gay in the Puerto Rican, Dominican, or Cuban culture in the USA and on those islands. What I really enjoyed about this gay Puerto Rican movie, both male gay characters were masculine and not feminine the way the media tends to portray gay men in movies, and especially Hispanic and Black gay men. I am glad I came across this movie by accident surfing movies on Amazon Prime. Barrio Boy is now a part of my Amazon Prime movie purchased collection. I definitely would recommend this movie to any DL masculine Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Cuban men. It's an excellent movie to see and the actor, Dennis Garcia is nice eye candy to see.
