"The Closet"

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

In this light French farce Daniel Auteul stars as a second tier accountant about to be fired from his job in a condom factory. On the advice of an older gay neighbor, he mails doctored pictures of "himself" in a gay bar to the head of the company. The leaders then balk at firing him, fearing sexual harrassment charges. The local macho bully, Gerard Depardieu, starts harrassing Auteul but is later convinced that he should be nice to him to also avoid charges of harrassment. Sub plots involve Auteul trying to win back his estranged son and deal with his attractive ex wife and also a cat who appears from time to time in the neighbor's apartment. The supporting cast is excellent here, as good as the leads. Light but enjoyable.
