The Birdcage (1996)

Hello, and welcome to another month of Apocalypse Video’s look at the wondrous world of Nature. For the month of March, we leave behind the ocean waters and take to the skies to observe the many species that inhabit the world above our heads. This…is March of the Penguins (...And Other Bird Related Films).In this second installment, we swap the harsh winter of Antarctica with the sunny shores of Miami as we take a look at the Goldman birds; one of the most flamboyant bird species on the planet. Fiercely loyal, the Goldmans are known to do anything for the happiness of their chicks, including masquerading as the opposite sex. And they do so in…the Birdcage.I’m your host, Dave, and joining me as we try our best not to pierce the toast are fellow drag fans Ryan, Mike, and special guests: Kara and Janna.Topics of discussion in this episode include a film filled with Yesterday’s conservative cartoons, now Today’s all too real leaders; Mike gives us a history lesson on “The Mapplethorpe Exhibit”; and finally, an absolutely fabulous Robin Williams causes Ryan to rethink his wardrobe choices.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

When March of the Penguins (...And Other Bird Related Films) continues, we’ll melt through the floor and enter a bizarre and beautiful world with talking parakeets and eccentric herons with The Boy and the Heron.
