Even better than his past work…
This film shows Patrik-Ian Polk at his best, or what I perceive to be his best. His work has gotten progressively better with each film I’ve seen. All show gay men pretty much being themselves in their everyday lives, but the characters have warmth and heart and, of course, drama. From ‘Punks’ to ‘Noah’s Arc’ (the series and the film, ‘Jumping the Broom’) I honestly enjoy his work. But, ‘The Skinny’ is better. ‘Noah’ regular touched on issues that affect the glbt community, this film seems to take subject of AIDS, promiscuity and the party scene a lot more seriously and to good effect. Well acted with an attractive cast, during Pride weekend in Harlem. Highly recommended.
A little too late to be “Groundbreaking”
Once upon a time, there were few enough gay-themed films to count on your hands (and few enough with minority leads to count on just ONE of them). But since those days are LONG gone, we, the viewing audience, have to stop giving a “pass” to sub-par gay-themed cinema, or else it just will not get better. I think everyone here agrees Noah’s Ark was as ground-breaking as it was satisfying for its day. But throwing us a bone by a cameo from Noah and Janito doesn’t cut it: we’re looking for something more substantive these days. The Skinny seems more of an attempt to cobble together any number of black gay fantasies; the cultured doctor, the witty Brit, the shy inexperienced romantic, the effeminate “best friend” who turns out to be wild and hot, and of course, the mandatory hyper-sexual narcissist. Unfortunately, there is just not enough time to turn these characters into anything less than clichés. And the “resolutions” to the story-line just come off as contrived and campy (once again…fine for Noah’s Ark, but not if you want to be taken seriously).
