Description

“When it comes to huge openings, a lot of people think of me.” We watched Hedwig and the Angry Inch with our friend Amber Shaw and we’re ready for a car wash! We talk about our introduction to this queer classic through the stage production, various versions of the soundtrack and the still-rockin’ after 20 years movie. John Cameron Mitchell’s snappy dialogue is hilarious and the music by Stephen Trask is face-melting rock and roll that can bring you to tears.  We also have to talk about the Glamour - my goodness, the glamour!  The wigs, the makeup, the costumes!  Any drag queen worth her wig glue owes a debt to Hedwig just like Hedwig owes a bit of her look to certain legends of drag *cough* Jackie Beat *cough cough*.  Pour yourself a vermouth on the rocks, grab your wig in a box and get ready for some Eastern bloc Rock!

This is the podcast where we watch a movie from our past that had a lasting impression on our little gay lives.  If we had no business watching it - we stole our parents VHS copy and watched under the cover of night.  If a diva gave a rousing speech - we memorized it and lip-synced it at a talent show.  Join Scott and Pete each week for a look back at the Movies That Made Us Gay!
