Los Exóticos (2013)
The documentary portrays the life and history of Mexican wrestlers who for various reasons have decided to participate in this contact sport characterizing exotic characters. The exotic refers to the strange, the mysterious, the weird, the unusual. Particularly in wrestling exotic style refers to refined athletes in their clothing, well groomed, with a very special walk, occasionally thin effeminate. Not rude, not technical, but not rare height or size, these mannered gladiators have represented a third option within the Mexican rings, some shamelessly displaying their sexual preference and thereby defying the homophobic, or secretly homophily, mood of the wrestling fans.

As Good As It Gets
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
