To Wong Foo Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar (1995)

Celebrate Pride Month with us as we swoon over the complete joy that is To Wong Foo Thanks For Everything Julie Newmar! Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguizamo star as three New York City drag queens on a road trip to Hollywood who get stuck in a small town when their car breaks down. Much to their surprise, they connect with the towns people and revitalize the place for the better. This movie, directed by Beeban Kidron and written by Douglas Carter Beane, is tonally unique and plays with elements of fairy-tale and fantasy, giving us a refreshing take on our protagonists stories and endings. Host, Sara Greenfield and her guest, Ashley Blanchet chat about all this and more on this week's episode of Talk Classic To Me.
