The Full Monty

Seeing how much their wives enjoy watching male strippers during their "Girls' Night Out," unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, NY come up with a bold way to make some quick case. In the process, they find renewed self-esteem, the importance of friendship and the ability to have fun. As the guys work through their fears, self-conciousness, feelings of worthlessness and anxieties; they come to discover that not only are they stronger as a group, but that the strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face their demons and overcome them. This show is not suitable for children.
