American Gigolo

Last September I caught the first two episodes when I had Showtime for the month. I thought it was a solid series and Jon Bernthal was absolutely mesmerising. I didn't want to stay signed up for the rest of the season and figured I'd wait til every ep was available and then pay for a month, binge it, and cancel my subscription. Yeah, then Showtime pulled it from their streaming. Blah. So I bought the series off Amazon, watched the whole thing in one go and thoroughly enjoyed it. While Richard Gere played Julian in the film as polished, cool, and distant, Bernthal's Julian was emotional, raw, and very real. He played it to the hilt and never looked back.
