About the film:
In this hysterical comedy, Armand and Albert have built the perfect life for themselves running a beloved Miami drag cabaret, where Albert dazzles nightly as the iconic Starina. But their pastel tranquility is shaken when Armand’s son announces that he’s getting married to the daughter of ultra-conservative Senator Keeley… and they’re all getting together for dinner! Can Armand and Albert transform themselves in Mr. and Mrs. Family Values in time? It’ll take the performance of their lives!
Screened in 35 mm. 117 minutes. Directed by Mike Nichols. Starring Nathan Lane, Robbie Williams, Hank Azaria, Gene Hackman, Christine Baranski, and Dianne Wiest.
