Movie Reviews of Paris Is Burning

Movie Review: Brilliant time capsule
Summary: 5 Stars

It's hard to believe that the goings on in Paris Is Burning is almost 20 years old. I saw it in a Midtown Atlanta theater in 1992, and was just blown away by it. The whole notion that people scrabble for a bare existence 99% of their time so they can shine for 1% sounds cute or depressing or trite, depending on your current level of treacle versus cynicism... But once you see people honest to God living that way, that patronizing distance is gone. A really good film. Really, really good.

Movie Review: You wanna talk about reading...
Summary: 5 Stars

I LOVE this movie and have had the VHS for years.
I can't believe the tape hasn't broke yet from viewing
it so much. I am SO GLAD to finally see that it's on DVD
and I can buy another copy!

Movie Review: IT'S IN LETTERBOX, and it's good
Summary: 5 Stars

It's old, and so many of the people have died, but it's a great documentary.

It's also in letterbox, unlike what Amazon is stating it being in a pan-and-scan state.
