This film adaptation of Harvey Fierstein's
Tony Award-winning Broadway play traces 10 years (1971-81) in the life of middle-aged homosexual Arnold Beckoff (Fierstein himself).
The film is, by turns, a riotously funny & poignant story of an aging drag queen & his attempts to connect with someone...anyone! Co-stars Anne Bancroft
as Fierstein's shrewish mother & Matthew Broderick
in one of his first movie roles.
Rated R 2 hours 1988
5 stars! Amazing gay classic. Fabulous! Touching! Real!
