Beautiful movie that will make you laugh and cry to death!
I loved the film from beginning to end. I always rate movies according to how much they manage to stir emotions within me. In this case, “Dressed as a Girl” is a success namely because it manages to put you through a whole range of emotions – as you watch, you smile, you laugh, you cheer, you cry… This production is not only a beautiful show that makes you rediscover the wonderfully colourful world of drag, and takes you back to the “glorious years” of the movement some 15/20 years ago – it is also a dramatic film in which the main protagonists open up and tell you their real life story, very humbly accepting to reveal their moments of weakness as honestly as their moments of glory. It is this very honesty that is deeply touching, and that occasionally brings you to tears during the screening.A huge thanks to the whole cast and the director for a beautiful moment and for successfully brightening up what had started as a dark hangover Sunday ;D
Looking forward to much more of this! cheers XX Alice (PS: I put 9 out of 10 and not 10 only cause its always good to think there’s room for improvement ;))
unwatchable
I think I must have seen a completely different movie from all of the other reviewers as this is quite possibly the worst movie I’ve ever seenHow on earth you could film it over a period of six years and end up with such a rambling, incoherent series of snapshots is quite beyond me.
Lest anyone reading this think it is from some rabid homophobe let me state that I am a gay man, I have lived in the East End, I do consider drag (can be) an art form and I wholeheartedly encourage the human race to seek out alternative lifestyles BUT this just depicts the characters as shallow, self-centered and utterly narcissistic
