Manuela and Manuel - Review

“Manuela and Manuel” is a lot like cotton candy — decked out in pink and other bright colors, sickly-sweet and designed to evaporate on contact. Puerto Rican director-editor Raul (”12 Hours”) Marchand’s fourth feature is a nothing of a movie, a wannabe cute but arch, unfunny comic-melodramatic farce involving a transsexual stage performer trapped in a crazy marriage scenario. Frolic will pick up some partners at fest dances and find theatrical and vid partners able to link Spanish and gay auds.”*
