    Storyline

    Edit
    The Los Angeles-set tale follows Ronnie, a man who runs a Disco Walking tour along with his browbeaten son, Brayden. When a sexy, alluring woman comes to take the tour, it begins a competition between father and son for her attentions. It also signals the appearance of an oily, slimy inhuman maniac who stalks the streets at night and strangles the innocent, soon dubbed 'The Greasy Strangler.' —Anonymous

    Pure Romance
    A charming and delightful romp, which centers around a love triangle with a father, his son and a beautiful and alluring siren.

    The atmosphere is pure schmaltz, aided by clever and subdued lighting and a gentle and sympathetic sound track. A movie to watch, while snuggled up to your girlfriend.

    If you liked "Love Story" and "Sleepless in Seattle", you'll doubtless love this gentle tale. Oh yes, don't forget to bring a tissue......for a number of reasons.
