to be the most obliging of theaters. The boyish box office manager offered a
delightful tutorial on where to sit to receive the optimal gander at the
entertainment's nominal star, a studly performer's "engine of
desire." Then, just in case dyslexia inopportunely flared up, landing us
where we could only admire the tush, the managing director personally escorted
us to our voyeureristic throne.” <br>
