@@fictionaldarlingwell yours look amazing, imperfections and all. I wish I had as wavy/curly hair as yours (I’m sure washing/upkeep can be a hassle though)
I knew someone 20 years ago who regularly wore pigtails, but she was one of those (un?)lucky blondes whose hair was as long as her waist and dead straight. Pigtails were the only way she could keep it out of the way; even a ponytail wasn't enough. She looked like she was doing a Sailor Moon cosplay whenever she was in uniform (we worked at a casino, so white shirt and vest).
I grew up in a poor, conservitive town in Northern CT and I think it's entirely reasonable to say that this movie changed my life when I first saw it in 1999.
This movie is a good example of what an honest, true satire comedy movie can be. There are so many elements of this script that you could feel were someone's experience or a collective experience within queer culture that when you show it through a satirical lens, you can see a honest, sometimes brutal and gut-wrenching truth. The moments with the kids and their parents, the stolen moments between characters, their longing and confusion and wants, elevate the comedy because it's authentic (well as much as one can be in a comedy). It's uncomfortable. It's awkward. It's where the culture was in the 90s into the 00s surrounding queer culture. The satire is used tactfully, and it's messaging coherent. It's not the best comedy ever made but not the point. But also, it has Dante basco, aka Zuko, so automatic 10/10, lol
I finally saw this for the first time recently too and am kicking myself for having slept on it for so long. What a great camp classic, that still packs so much heart. this should be required viewing for everyone (the movie and your video!). Great video, Jess! Hope this latest hurricane wasn't any trouble for you.
Natasha Lyonne is and always has been a darling. Be sure not to miss her in Slums Of Beverly Hills (with dearly departed Alan Arkin), Detroit Rock City, and (if you dare) Freeway 2.
Megan’s mother is played by THEE MINK STOLE. I don’t know how much John Waters you have or haven’t watched, but Mink Stole is one of his regular actors and she was always hilarious.
I remember when I first saw this movie (probably rented it soon after release) and when I saw her parents were Mink Stole and Bud Court I busted up laughing.
I've found this movie,but it was damaged so I never saw the ending...:-< 04:22 - 04:31 This is what happens when Enid&Wednesday _both_ want to paint their house.💗🖤 P.S. Please,watch"Jawbreaker"!!
I remember when this was on TV at night in the mid 2000's. It was one of those movies where you had to like, flip through the channels, go past it, and then go to the TV Guide and see when it was replaying later that night when everyone else was asleep to sneak it.
Dante Basco Kip Purdue Natasha Lyonne Melanie Lynskey Clea Duvall Rupaul This movie is full of people who are amazing. And it’s wonderful! Another one you should check out is DEBS. It’s just as good and campy. Also imagine me and you.
This is one of only a handful of reactions to this movie I've seen, I'm surprised it doesn't get more because the subject matter and the broad comedy make it ripe for reactions.
@@Robins_tea ZZAVID/Sophia Phan/OBG Reacts/Deego Cinema are the only other ones I've seen, I'd love to see Ashleigh Burton/Mary Cherry/Natalie Gold/Dasha Reacts/Magic Magy/VKunia/Once upon a Reaction/Trixy Blue/The Homies/CLARISS/The Movie Budz/Cetane/Cinebinge/Popcorn in Bed/Shanelle Rico/Trin Lovell cover it.
@@justindenney-hall5875Kennie JD has also reacted to this movie if you want another kinda big reacter to follow and watch them react to this movie... Yeah I agree I would love to see some of those reactors listed react to this especially the Movie Buds, Natalie Gold and Trin Lovell.. I think they would like this movie. 100%
One of my favorite movies! I drove an hour to see this in the theater when it came out, because it had a limited release. At the time, I didn't fully understand why I was drawn to this movie. I just knew I had to see it, and I wasn't disappointed!
My favorite part was the mixed messages in almost every scene. RuPaul's character can't hide who he really is. the soldier cutouts...a kneeling man in front of a gun wielding soldier the barrel at waist level. almost ever scene tries to undermine the "message"
Hey Jess! Have you watched Stranger Things, I’m assuming you probably have but if you haven’t then would you be able to react to it, cuz I think you’d quite enjoy it
@@fictionaldarling oh well I think that you would really enjoy it, you should at least watch it before season 5, the final season comes out late next year to early 2025. As I’m sure u know it’s a kind of horror but also fun show that you’d really like!
SO many big name actors in this. And some who are best known from cult classics. This movie is fantastic, but I was highly amused by your commentary about the interruption to their high school education!!! Lol. Enjoying the reaction.
A couple of years back I was putting together a video for my Film Group about queer films with happy endings, so I rewatched this movie. It was then I realised that the cute Lesbian at the bar is Julie Delpy. As a massive fan of the Before Trilogy it freaked me the F out.
I love that you loved this movie. It's one of my favorites. Have you ever seen D.E.B.S.? Its great too and if you needed costume ideas for if you decide to react to it. Think spy school girl or alot of blue. You reaction and outfit for this was👏👏👏
"That character" they could've dropped is played by Dante Basco, who played Rufio in "Hook" and voiced Zuko in Avatar: The Last Airbender...both of which I highly, HIGHLY recommend to anyone who hasn't seen them.
I'm so happy you did this movie!! 💕 And thrilled that you liked it. I remember being up in Alaska for my first summer, and this was tucked in the back of the communal library. Intrigued by a colorful case and actors I recognized, I watched it. And proceeded to watch it about once a week for 3 months, then asked if I could take it home with me. The cast is amazing, the soundtrack is full of bangers, it's based on a real story from Jamie Babbitt, and it hit on a lot of levels for me: bisexual, former cheerleader, the parental friction, being told what you look like or how you're feeling or how you are (or who you are) is wrong, learning to accept that you need to do and be whatever is right for you and that it's nothing to apologize for.... Anyway, it's a great film, and I'm really happy you enjoyed it.
The reason Larry looks so familiar is he's played by Richard Moll. Probably best known for playing Bull Shannon in the long-running sitcom Night Court, he's been in nearly 200 productions, mostly comedy and horror. @9:15 - The line about getting gender roles mixed up because her father is weak makes total sense given that Megan is naïve, but it would also work if she weren't. Her mother sent her here, thus her "treatment" requires undermining her mother's power in the home dynamic. So if she were out and proud this would still be a useful tactic to get her father to take back control.
I didn't see this one until last year but I also thought I was straight until a year before that. well I was right about being attracted to women but it turns out that's not in a straight way :P
I only just learned recently, like hours ago, that this movie was queer and satirical. I thought the title was referring to prissy entitled main character who expects special treatment in life. Like, "I have to get a job? But I'm a cheerleader!" Pleasantly surprised.
This was my 1st LGBTQIA movie, saw it on HBO (I think, or was it Cinemax?) and I loved it! Then I saw D.E.B.S. on here (back when it was free, now you have to buy/rent it ugh!!!) and it started a series of watching more movies like those. PS: I saw your reaction to D.E.B.S. , top notch just like this one. Keep up the good work.
You should watch The Intevention 2016 (I mean, if you want to) It's a movie made by Clea Duvall (Graham), starring herself, Natasha Lyonne (Megan) and Melanie Lynskey (Hilary the pookie). The three of them are lesbian icons and I love them sm, it warms my heart to know they are still close. Also, Clea and Natasha are dating in that movie too
And now, if you haven't already, you can go watch/rewatch the music video for Silk Chiffon. Love that MUNA paid homage to this movie and having Phoebe Bridgers as the program director... incredible. Great job reacting!
My tips for perfect full pigtails: use a mirror. Divide the hair into 2 even sections. (I've found the easiest way is to use a big comb, put it in the middle of the hairline at your nape, then drag it straight up to the hairline at your brow and smooth the sides away from the part into two sections. Fix where wonky.) Put one side in a low ponytail to keep it out of the way. Smooth the other side up to where you want the pigtail (same method as making a regular ponytail) and hold it in place with your elastic. I like using a landmark to get them even; you can measure up from your ear, or try to frame your forehead, etc. Ex: I have a handy little divot across the top of my head from constant headset use so they're not too far back, and then line them up with the arch of my eyebrows. Repeat the process on the other side. Tilt your head a few ways to see if they look even, and loosen the elastic, readjust, then tighten (don't take them all the way out!) to correct if needed. Use a brush or small comb to smooth any bumps. Voila! Perfect anime girl pigtails. This is a good base technique if you want to bun braids or panda buns too. A similar principle applies for the accent pigtails Darling did. Just divide out a smaller section, but use the same method to figure placement. A landmark is a lifesaver.
Graham's father was played by Richard Pine (CHIPS). Who is the father to actor Chris Pine (Star Trek, etc.). This whole cast was stacked with young future talent and the old guard. And Mel Brooks said the best way to deal with tough issues was through comedy. This was literally the first (and for the longest time only) film about conversion therapy. And it was very respectful of the subject. AND the soundtrack rock's.
it doesnt matter but in the directors cut of the movie i watched years ago it states that the beginning of the movie takes place in june and is over a 2ish month period so it is indeed summer
I saw this years ago, when my sister (who turned out later to be lgbt+) bought it on DVD. It was an enjoyable movie then, and now, but I didn't realize it was supposed to be satire. Side note: I just realized that the taller gay man, Larry, is played by Richard Moll, who is best known for playing the bailiff, Bull, on the tv show Night Court.
haha, thanks!!! tbh, i’m still trying to reorganize the shelves so everything is kinda in a weird place rn, but I figured i might as well stack the pink ones together in the meantime 😅 so they’re not really similar genres(ish), but from top to bottom: breakfast at tiffany’s -> fierce femmes and notorious liars -> when you call my name -> all the women in my brain -> my year of rest & relaxation -> twilight! 💜
If you want more by the director of this movie, she also did the first three episodes of the A League of Their Own tv show, which is absolutely incredible (and almost mind-blowingly gay) 😊

I grew up in a poor, conservitive town in Northern CT and I think it's entirely reasonable to say that this movie changed my life when I first saw it in 1999.
One thing to realize about the late 90s was neither side wanted to acknowledge bisexuals existed.
Bi erasure was a real thing. If they weren't an impossibility, they were a villain 😬
They made Willow a lesbian in Buffy, because making her bi was somehow "not an option" at the time.

Ah yes peak lesbian cinema I’m very excited 😊❤
“The height difference!” Yes, Richard Moll is 6’8” of adorableness.
The outfit may not be fully cheerleader but it is definitely giving Pink Lady so it still fits the vibe of the movie lol.

I'd love to see you check out more MCU actors in other films. Foremost would be our beloved Chadwick Boseman in "42" or perhaps RDJ in "Chaplin".
Have you seen any of the following: "Bring it On" (2000), "The Virgin Suicides" (1999), or "Drop Dead Gorgeous" (1999)?
i actually haven't seen any of those yet!! but 'the virgin suicides' has been on my TBR list forever & i keep meaning to read it 😅
Someone's a Kirsten Dunst enjoyer 😉
Drop Dead Gorgeous is particularly underrated, with an amazing cast.
Graham's father was played by Richard Pine (CHIPS). Who is the father to actor Chris Pine (Star Trek, etc.).
This whole cast was stacked with young future talent and the old guard.
And Mel Brooks said the best way to deal with tough issues was through comedy. This was literally the first (and for the longest time only) film about conversion therapy. And it was very respectful of the subject.
