Gigolo
Gabriel LaBelle plays both young Johnny/Julian and also Colin, the son of Julian's love interest.,The V12 E-Type used in the opening credits is different from the older 6 cylinder used in the series.,Featured in ESPN College Football: Florida State at LSU (2022),The only three things going for this show are the decent cinematography, Jon Bernthal, and Rosie O'Donnell. The plot tries to be intriguing at first, but now that I have watched all of the episodes, I find it rather dull overall and not worthy of its movie predecessor. The two subplots are ultimately unsatisfying. The series does get us through it with the subtle macho charisma of Julian, endearingly played by Jon Bernthal who is a very charismatic actor himself. He is not as pretty as Richard Gere but his stares and head tilts are smoldering to say the least. He is the perfect reincarnation of Julian. Then we have Rosie O'Donnell as the new Sunday, who provides some comic relief to the dialogue. It works for me and I like her performance. All of the other characters unfortunately come off as unlikable. And the use of clip montages gets a little extreme. Overall, this series is a lot of style, not much substance, but you get a little bit of both from Bernthal, and that is enough to recommend it.,
