Zona rosa (2005)
Zona Rosa is a Winner
SEXY IN THE CITY, Dec. 5, 2005 Reviewer: Preston A dazzling display of dance and drama, Zona Rosa has been an international film festival fave and viewing the DVD even makes it better due to the bonanza of DVD extras. Director Dan Castle has taken his camera through the infamous and intimate strip joints of Mexico City's Zona Rosa. Not content to merely record performances, Castle has conducted up-close and personal interviews with the scintillating strippers, their family members and the actual club owners. The result is funny, sad, sensational and sexy all at the same time. This is the ultimate voyeur's trip into the exploration of the male psyche behind the meat market. The 40-plus minutes of DVD extras include complete strip routines from all the performers involved in the movie, obviously rife with male nudity. Of particular interest will be the raw Big Banana contest, which would seem to validate the old cliché that size does indeed matter. Latin lovers will savor this confection of Mexican machismo.
