On the evening of August 30, 2019, I watched the film's re-screening in Texas Theater. This year is the 25th anniversary of the film's premiere, and I am also 25 years old. With a lot of emotion, 25 years have passed, and the tears of laughter are still there.
1 Mitzi-- Hugo Weaving
When I watched it, the people in the movie theater exclaimed when Mitzi appeared on stage, because his drag queen is really too similar, and 90% of Americans have watched at least one of "The Matrix" and "Lord of the Rings." , They all know Hugo, but they don't know Hugo like this, it can be called a professional drag show, and finally the acting bursts. The expression changes after "will you have a boyfriend when we back" are extremely delicate. The tall and thin fragile flower, the initiator of the trip of the trio, is in the middle, loves the career of drag queen most, rehearses at every turn, and has the most modest attitude. He said, "Although knowing the world is not easy, but it still hurts." He doesn’t take the initiative to dress up as a drag queen to hook men, but he won’t be at the forefront when something happens. He is the gentlest one, reconciling the relationship between the actress Felicia and the angry young Bernadette, but he There is also the biggest difficulty. The situation of a middle-aged gay with a family is the most complicated, but he is also very lucky to have such a good family.
2 Bernadette--Terence Tramp
Bernadette is a trans, but she is the most kind. Hardcore resolved the two crises of the trio. The King of Sentences has experienced the most and lived the most transparently, and she is eloquent, the first bar crisis. , The audience around me applauded for her speech. She doesn't like drag performances as much as Mitzi, but her life is really positive. She rushed to find rescue in the desert. At that time, Mitzi of the Buddhist family was rehearsing, and Felicia, who was passionate, was brushing the car. Life is difficult for Bernadette, but she has learned to face it calmly, and is positive, she is the embodiment of courage and wisdom.
3 Felicia-Guy Pearce
Guy is the youngest, the most gay, the best acting, and most like the many gay guys who have come out publicly around me now. He has no taboos, has a poisonous tongue, and has a strong desire to express himself. It’s nothing like this all the time, but even though he has a muscle, his fragility is being opened bar. When those people attacked, he had a clear view. He lived rashly, but he did not expect that he would be totally unacceptable in the conservative areas of central Australia. The panic at that moment was so real. In the end, he and Mitzi's abba cross-dressing was very exciting and very chemistry. Felicia is a very brilliant character, and Guy has done quite well. His beautiful muscles and feminine movements perfectly interpret a young fearless gay man. If he lived in Australia today, he would be very happy.
I like this movie very much, it’s funny, and it perfectly shows what kind of career drag queens are. They have understanding and support, but they also have cruel attacks and abuse, but they did not give up the pursuit of the meaning of life. . Although it hurts, paint it over and move on. Les, Gay, Bi, Trans, we are all 100% human. We are the same. We are equal.
There are some interesting scenes in the movie, such as Hugo, who is 188 in height, wears high heels and slippers and goes to the street. Everyone is only on his shoulder, and there is a dazzling flamingo in the crowd. For example, when Felicia went to the video store to buy Texas or something, the poster behind it was the poster of HugoWeaving's movie Frauds, and the villain in the lower right corner was Hugo.
Fairwell Queens, you're gorgeous.
