Continuity: When Silas teaches Holiday how to play the Nintendo N64, the game is Super Mario 64, when only a few seconds earlier the game was clearly Super Smash Bros, which only features the character Mario. moreQuotes:
Niki: [notices Holiday's piano] See, Mama. Look, it ain't portable.Wanda: Isn't portable. I'm trying to get her to use correct grammar.
Holiday Heart: Oh, that's very nice. Well, I hope I say this with correct grammar, but Sister Girl, this food sure don't look appetizing.
Wanda: It's all beige, isn't it?
Holiday Heart: Well, let's just put it this way. Holiday can burn, so let's say from here on out I do all the cooking, okay?
[hands over plate]
Holiday Heart: What is it anyway?

Caught this movie on the Black Entertainment Network while
flipping channels. It was a pleasant surprise!!! Entertaining! Funny
and heart tugging all at once.
When a young girl cries for help for her mom who is being beaten
up by her boyfriend, the only one to help is a drag queen--Holiday
Heart-- who packs a punch. He befriends the duo taking them to
his home and they become a family in spite of their differences.
All is well until another man comes along putting a rift between the
mother and Holiday. Then Drugs pull the mom away from the
family.
I found Holiday;s need for a family heartbreaking and truthful--and
it was an incredible portrayal. Also great are Alfre Woodward and
the young girl.
There are a couple of holes in the plot but this story of a drag
queen with a heart of gold really packs an emotional wallop. What
a sleeper. Highly recommended
