Kinky Boots is an English film akin to a cross between 'The Full Monty & 'Priscilla Queen of the Desert'. I hate comparisons but if one was to draw one to people unfamiliar with its story, this would be the best one.
A few years between drinks so I suppose this tale can be told again with its own twist. This time its a shoe company down on its luck and now in the hands of third generation shoe-smith Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton). Charlie is having bad luck with his girlfriend and hating the fact he will have to layoff his staff. In his time of woe he happens upon a drag show. He of course zooms in on the shoes all are wearing and especially his new 'friend' Lola It is decided that Price Shoes will create women boots for to fit men. What ensues is the heart warming tale of men afraid of what they don't know (ie drag queens) warming to them, the stranger bringing everyone closer together, and the man getting the girl (vice versa too). But its all good, it's a good watch, I haven't told you all the facts because remember watching the chase and catch is fun also.
Nick Frost is here as Don. Frost was Shauns witless sidekick in Shaun of the Dead. He is very funny here too though in a smaller role.
A great night out for all.
