''The Gigolos'' is a 2005 British comedy film directed by Richard Bracewell, starring Sacha Tarter, Trevor Sather and Ben Willbond alongside Susannah York, Anna Massey and Siân Phillips. Bracewell's debut feature, ''The Gigolos'' is a buddy movie set in the twilight world of the London male escort. In 2010, the ''Daily Telegraph'' listed ''The Gigolos'' as "the most underrated film of all time". The tag line (according to IMDb) is "Everyone Needs Someone", although UK promotional materials use the quote "A provocative glimpse at open secrets" from the Hollywood Reporter review. The film was shot on location in London in 2004 and 2005. Bracewell wrote the story with Tarter and Sather, and was also cinematographer. The dialogue was improvised. It premiered at AFI Fest in Hollywood in November 2005. It was released in the UK on 23 March 2007 by Punk Cinema. The British Film Institute released the DVD in the UK on 9 February 2009. Its premiere on network television was on Monday, 20 July 2009 on BBC1. ==Plot== The film begins at night with Sacha on a balcony on the south side of the River Thames in London, overlooking Parliament. Sacha smokes while his valet Trevor helps him dress. Sacha leaves the apartment block in his silver Mercedes SL480 (a reference to the Mercedes 450 SL Convertible Richard Gere drives in ''American Gigolo''), crossing Westminster Bridge to a date. Sacha first meets Joy, an ageing assistant in a publishing company, then Lady James, a powerful government minister. Sacha dines and dates elderly clients (all over 50), sometimes providing something more. Meanwhile, Trevor goes about his business as both Sacha's valet and his pimp, sourcing the clients and booking hotel rooms. One night, Sacha injures himself "on the job" in a swimming pool, so trains Trevor as his temporary replacement. Trevor is a surprise hit as a gigolo, and the pair go into competition. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Gigolos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
