About This Movie

So, Recto/Verso—it's got this quirky, offbeat charm that really sets it apart. The pacing is a bit erratic, but that actually adds to its humor. You’ve got this TV presenter, a total cad, who finds himself in a pretty ludicrous situation, posing as a gay man to land a gig. The performances are a mixed bag—some hit the mark, while others feel a bit over the top. The movie plays with themes of identity and desperation in a way that’s both funny and a tad poignant. The atmosphere has this kitschy vibe, which feels very late 90s, and the practical effects, though minimal, fit the tone just right. It’s definitely a trip into the absurdities of showbiz.
