Alex Clark, the director of The Tender Age 2, knows how to gather beautiful boys and capture them in natural moments of play and lust. Throughout The Tender Age 2, shots of boys playing ball or horsing around are intercut into the sex action. The end result is erotic. Each of the five scenes pairs two boys together at a time for an innocent tryst hidden from the group during a summer campout.
Boy, oh boy, if I could convince myself that trimming the Christmas tree and ringing in the new year were really like this in Saint Petersburg, I'd pack my bags, sell the farm, and get a one-way ticket to paradise. Short of that, I guess, there's always this visual reminder to tempt my irresolution... but its images bob about in my fancy like a tree-full of forbidden fruits, every one of them shiny and voluptuous!
