The movie differs quite a bit on some level from the stage play, but it is mostly true to the original stage version. This is a story that was written 30 years ago, takes place even longer ago, and yet somehow it is absolutely timely today. This movie is worth the watch. You'll laugh and cry... and you might learn something while you do that. It's a love letter to a diverse world on so many levels and yet Pamela Parker has managed to tell the tale with loads of humor sparked with love. If the play is in production near you, by all means go see that as well. On stage, it's even more personal and more touching. Enjoy the little jewel of an indie movie. There's so much to love about it.
