Short but sweet; fantastic and disturbing - what are your thoughts?

 

"Because I just went gay all of a sudden". I can't wait for your thoughts. 

 

Classic Noir or two films in one? What's in the box? What does the film have to say about women, men, and Greek Mechanics with a penchant for 'va va va voom'?
