This week we bring you the highest grossing film featuring gay lead characters* -- The Birdcage!
A story that started as a play in early 1970's France, made it's way to the silver screen in Italy, became a hit on Broadway, and finally got the Hollywood treatment in 1996. We discuss Hank Azaria's hotness, straights performing queers performing straightness, and the sadly contemporary feel of the film's politics.
