Oh, yeah, good choices. Hedwig was hilarious.

La Cage Aux Foles.

The original, in French.
The remakes and the musical doesn't come close


Brokeback Moutain.
Get Real

Thanks for the tip. Loved Mysterious Skin Didn't think to check on what Araki had directed before that. BTW, I just finished Parting Glances. Can't say that I would single it out for anything other than an example of a mid-1980's period piece. A treat to watch Steve Buscemi in one of his first roles, however. Then I rented Trick because it seems to be showing up in both the "best" and the "worst" threads. I don't think I'd place it in either, although I really enjoyed Tori Spelling's character. The scene in the diner toward the end of the movie is great.

Hee hee-glad y'all like Sordid Lives so much-Leslie Jordan is an old friend and it is wonderful that he got tl keep his role(from the stage play)for the movie.
And yes-he is as funny in real life,but with a very deep spiritual serious side as well.
If his one man show-Like A Dog On Linoleum comes your way please go see it-truly genius.
