Boys will be girls: three outrageous (but loveable) drag queens -- fierce Noxeema, sensitive Vida, and dreamer Chi Chi -- set out from New York to Hollywood in their 1967 Cadillac convertible. In addition to their eye-popping wardrobes, the divas pack a good luck charm, an autographed photo of TV's "Catwoman", Julie Newmar. But when the Caddy breaks down in Snydersville, the mother of all hick towns, the trio decides to stay for the weekend. While there, the threesome (mistaken for actual women) become enmeshed in many of the citizens' problems, ranging from spousal abuse to romantic heartache. They even teach some of the surly males to lighten up on the machismo thing. But when the fetching femmes are revealed to be gay guys, how will the town react?

Three New York drag queens on the way to Hollywood for a beauty pageant have their car break down in a small Midwestern town, stranding the flamboyant trio for the weekend. Waiting for parts for their Cadillac convertible, the "ladies" show the locals that appearing different doesn't mean they don't have humanity in common.

Released theatrically in the USA September 8, 1995. Amblin Entertainment is Steven Spielberg's production company. Color by DeLuxe. In DTS Stereo. Actual drag queens auditioned for the three starring roles, as well as Hollywood actors Robert Sean Leonard, James Spader, Stephen Dorff, John Cusack, and "Mrs. Doubtfire" herself, Robin Williams. Director Beeban Kidron was five months pregnant when shooting began in July, 1994. She gave birth the day after the film wrapped. Additional credits: Dale Nielsen, Heidi McGowen, James Weis (assistant directors); Christopher Woods (2nd unit photography); Elizabeth Ziegler (steadicam operator); and Kevin P. Faherty, Patricia Eiben (wardrobe supervisors). Rated BBFC PG by the British Board of Film Classification.

To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar Quotes/Excerpts:

"When a straight man puts on a dress and gets his sexual kicks, he is a transvestite. When a man is a woman trapped in a man's body, and has a little operation, he is a transsexual. When a gay man has WAY too much fashion sense for one gender, he is a drag queen." -- Noxeema Jackson (WESLEY SNIPES) to Chi Chi Rodriguez (JOHN LEGUIZAMO). "We gotta make moments fabulous. Because no sooner is a moment noticed than it is gone, child. And a life ain't something to be avoided." -- Noxeema Jackson (WESLEY SNIPES) "Ready or not, here comes mama." -- Vida Boheme (PATRICK SWAYZE)

I saw this in the theatres and had forgotten how funny and entertaining it was until I watched the DVD last night. It's too funny watching Wesley Snipes, John L. & Patrick Swazey in drag.

A very touching and funny movie. Look past the gay/drag queen thing and get into the lesson this story is trying to present.

The grisly and debauched film PATHOLOGY is a juiced-up medical thriller that plays like FLATLINERS with a mean streak and a broken moral compass. Writers Mark Nelvedine and Brian Taylor have created a premise allowing for CSI-like forensics along with heaps of sex and violence, truly making the most of the film's R-rating. A high-end exploitation film with good performances, PATHOLOGY is strong enough for horror fans and should go down smoothly for non-squeamish viewers with a taste for the dark side. Gifted med student Ted Grey (Milo Ventimiglia, HEROES) arrives at a major Washington, D.C., as an intern, where he is met with suspicion and resentment by the tightly knit group of fellow young pathologists-in-training. Soon, though, Ted is accepted into their circle---where they each take turns committing a murder so that the others may prove their mettle by figuring out the cause of death and celebrate with drug-fueled orgies among the dead bodies in the hospital. Things change for Ted, though, when his law student fiancée, Gwen (Alyssa Milano), moves to the city and helps to scare him straight. Soon, crazed Wallace Stevens-quoting ...
