Saw the world premiere of this film at the Palm Springs International Film Fest this week and met the cast, director and writer. Fantastic movie with some of the funniest one liners I've ever heard. Audience gave the cast two standing ovations. All showings are sold out. However they do not have a distributor yet! We need to get this movie into theaters so please search for it so the data miners see the interest. This is a very relatable story of parents who reject their gay son and the lengths his mother goes to after he dies to make amends and understand him better. Jacki Weaver delivers a one liner like no one I've seen. It's poignant, funny, eccentric and uplifting.
A heartwarming story with friendship, love, truth, sadness, heartbreak, finding yourself. A reminder not understanding someone or how they choose to live their life, shouldn't keep you from those you love. Learn and grow.
Filmed in beautiful Halifax, NS, Canada.
I thoroughly enjoyed this tale about the power of love, the power of a mother's love, and openness and compassion overcoming prejudices. A gentle, well-told tale with a happy and satisfying ending. Just what we need in these difficult times. And the acting and musical performances were great too.....
This is a beautiful film. The story is very beautiful, and is sure to touch your hearts. The visuals are good as well. I enjoyed it a lot.
I know this movie has its flaws and there are many. But if you love drag culture, this is worth a watch.
Jackie Weaver is a delight! And the queens are great too
