Jack Weston is on the run from his brother-in-law and hides out in The Ritz, a gay paradise in New York City complete with steam room, night club, swimming pool, discotheque and rooms with posters of Marilyn Monroe. The patrons all walk around in nothing but towels and cruise the vast complex for lovers. Rita Moreno is the world's worst nightclub singer. F. Murray Abraham is the flame who can't seem to find a lover no matter how hard he tries. There are ample opportunities for non-PC comedy, but it mostly falls flat. The film rarely leaves the hotel's premises and feels a bit stagnant as a result.
