Edinburgh was fantastic, now I've returned with some new DVD's: "To Wong Foo thanks for everything - Julie Newmar", "Queer as folk US" (season 2) and "Y Tu mama tambien".
Here's a couple of pictures from "To Wong Foo thanks for everything - Julie Newmar", a rather tacky but very fabulous story about three dragqueens ending up in a small redneck town. Starring Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes (Blade), John Leguizamo (the one that played Toulouse-Lautrec in Moulin Rouge) and the always lovely and very talented Stockard Channing (Rizzo in Grease, Tidy Endings). It is a bit too hollywood-cliché, but the costumes are fierce and the actors are quite good. Against "Priscilla - queen of the desert" this film doesn't stand a chance, but it's the kind of film that's good when you want to chill and be fabulous. Incidentally the stunning Rupaul appears shortly in the opening scene and there's a bit of Barbra on the soundtrack!
Lovely.
