I love drag queens more than I love straight men or natural women. They are special to me because of the great fusion of fantasy and glamour. I wish women were glamourous again but it seems we have lost the desire to be ladies, so I'm happy to witness the glamour portrayed in this film.

Also, Madonna stole the idea of Vogueing and ran with it. Some of the guys in the vogue community were very upset because now Vogueing is attributed to her and not to the pioneers we see here.

I grew up with many of the people depicted here in the late 1980s and 1990s. This documentry really does sum up the ball culture of that time. Its a little watered down and made palatable for the masses but it is very good and quite accurate.
