Synopsis
This film adaptation of Harvey Fierstein's Tony Award-winning Broadway play traces 10 years (1971-81) in the life of middle-aged homosexual Arnold Beckoff (Fierstein himself). The film is, by turns, a riotously funny and poignant story of an aging drag queen and his attempts to connect with someone … anyone! Co-stars Anne Bancroft as Fierstein's shrewish mother and Matthew Broderick in one of his first movie roles.
