'The Birdcage'

One of the most fun and iconic films of the '90s was the vivacious comedy The Birdcage. Nathan Lane and Robin Williams starred as successful and flamboyant partners whose gorgeous son wanted to introduce his parents to his fiancé's parents. Unfortunately, his fiancé's family are intensely conservative members of the Republican party. The loving gay couple and owner of the most popular drag club in South Beach have to pretend to be straight!"Don't worry about that. I'm very maternal. And Albert's practically a breast." This is one great film you do not want to miss!
