Review of La Cage aux Folles (1978) by Tim S — 29 Nov 2013
La Cage aux Folles is a 1978 French Film about a gay couple that own a night club and when their son decides to marry, they have to do whatever it takes to convince the young girl's conservative parents that they're in no way different.
The film helped blow the doors open on more acceptance of homosexuals, but also doesn't portray them as bad people. They're very good people, but with flaws just like heterosexuals. The film is mainly a comedy but there are also some dramatic moments in there as well.
The performances are all superb and deserve their great status. Even though I still prefer the American remake by Mike Nichols, this is still a classic film that's definitely worth watching more than once.
