671 - La Cage Aux Folles (1978)
You know what would just be wonderful right about now? \xa0A delightful and beloved French farce. \xa0Edouard Molinaro\u2019s classic tale of two gay nightclub owners\u2019 attempt to put on a show of conservative domesticity in order to trick a right-wing politician into allowing their son to marry his daughter isn\u2019t exactly timeless - in that it is SO set in 1978 - but it\u2019s charm and hilarious send-up of straight gender performance make it one for the ages.
If you\u2019d like to watch ahead for next week\u2019s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Howard Hawks\u2019\xa0Only Angels Have Wings\xa0(1939).
