The Merry Gentlemen: the plot
Romanticism but also male sensuality are the ingredients of this Christmas comedy. Ashley (Britt Robertson) wants to avoid the closure of the club where her parents performed when they were young so she asks Luke (Chad Michael Murray) for help. The attractive protagonist will set up a dance troupe of only men (himself included) who will dance for a dance show so as to avoid the closure of the theater. In this romantic comedy there will certainly be an attraction between the two protagonists. Furthermore, the atmosphere filled with Christmas lights and decorations, Santa Claus and snowy scenery will win the heart of even the most stubborn Grinch. The show given by the all-male dance troupe will be in “Magic Mike” style for a sexy, fun and romantic film at the same time.
