Written and starring playwrite and drag queen Charles Busch. This. Movie. Rules. It's campy, it's dirty, it's gay! it's a sendup of 1960's Gidget films but you don't need to be familiar with the genre to enjoy this. Also baby Amy Adams is in it!
Hear me out. Recently I went down the rabbit hole that is 70s softcore porno musicals and listen, I'm obsessed. Cinderella from 1977 is one of my favorites cause there is so much to unpack. One, it's a musical, and who doesn't love a campy musical? Two, the evil step-sister's makeup is insane, like I'm talking 70s drag levels of makeup. Three, Cinderella has a "snapping pussy", now I'm not fully sure what that means but I know she's good at fucking from the sound of it. Also, the stereotypical sassy black gay guy makes an appearance as the fairy godmother (Sorry Billy Porter). Like is the film SEVERALLY dated? yes. But is it a good time if? Yes. I suggest you play a drinking game where every time a random sexual encounter happens you take a shot. (also sorry dick lovers, no dick is visible in this film)
Watched this yesterday on a whim and immediately fell in love. One of the most colorful and energetic films you'll ever see, both in terms of cinematography AND performances!
I drew this for a project a few years ago based off a photo of myself at 4 and my god, that’s a lot of emotion for four. The melodrama is a lot yet it has persisted. Along with the belief that one misplaced clip will fix a bundle of unkempt hair. It’s the portrait that captures my essence the best.
People hating on Pedro Pascal for being a girlfriend when he's literally a Michelle Visage level ally.
Listen, I don't want to jump the gun. However, game recognizes game, and when I look at my evidence board and tie the red strings together, the signs point in a general direction. If I crunch the numbers and read my tea leaves, I can ascertain that he is a friend of the community. No matter gay, straight or bi, lesbian, transgender life. He's on the right track, baby. He was born to survive. Clearly you've never seen a woman and a man have a silly little friendship. My GOD. No matter black white or beige. Chola or Orient made. He's on the right track, baby. He was born to be brave. Listen, sexuality is SO boring. It's so stupid. It's a flat circle. It means NOTHING! Which is great because then it means whatever you want! HOWEVER! this whole thing is misogynistic and homophobic, regardless of the sexuality of the peoples.
He is literally our princess Diana.
