Picks and Pans Review: Kiss Me Guido

UPDATED 07/28/1997 at 01:00 AM EDT Originally published 07/28/1997 at 01:00 AM EDT

Nick Scotti, Anthony Barrile

When a young pizza maker (Scotti) in The Bronx begins scanning the classified ads for apartments in Manhattan, he's such a naif that he thinks GWM stands for Guy With Money. Gosh, is he surprised when he discovers that his prospective new roomie (Barrile), an actor, is gay. Kiss Me Guido, a slight comedy about sexual identity, recalls leering sex farces of the early '70s, when the hero had to pretend to be gay to avoid the draft or dissuade an ardent female pursuer. Although Guido has amusing moments and serviceable performances, it never overcomes its improbable premise. (R)
