🏳🌈 HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!! 🏳🌈 I loved this film!
As per usual with hilarious films like these, there were so many moments that I wish I could've included, but simply couldn't do to, oh you know the drill, COPYRIGHT 👎 Either way, hope you all enjoy!
I was the proud mom of a gay daughter for decades and am now the proud mom of a trans son. 🌈 live and let live and support your kids!!!!!! If it’s important to them, stand by them!!!!!
I have always loved this film although its not as well known here in the UK If you want a great film to watch for Pride its a British film called Pride which is actually based on a true story about how the LGBT community got behid the striking miners of the Welsh valleys its called simply PRIDE. Its a difficult watch in places but very gripping and heart warming though i warn you it can be very naughty in some places and some editing will be required LOL
Fun fact: John Leguizamo’s future wife was his personal costume designer for this film. They are still together.
He's so hot, loved him in spun!
Oh ,I didn't know that learned something new everyday, thanks
No he married Justine Maurer a costume designer from Carlitos Way in 2003
Don't forget: they met. John went off and ate a bunch of grasshoppers, got drunk, got in a fistfight with Patrick and barfed bugs all over Swayze's shoes.
Wesley said, "Ohhh. I'll hold y'all purse."
If you enjoyed this, then I highly recommend you check out “Pricilla, Queen of the Dessert”
Hopefully will be watching that soon!
I was going to suggest this one, but got beaten to it. Just rewatched this on TCM. The BEST "Struggles and Triumph over Bigotry" movie I've seen recently.
This! The moment I saw this movie come up, I was like we need Pricilla now!
"Now listen here, you mullet!..."
Ah, yes Agent Smith from the Matrix movies! That is not to say the Wesley Snipes from the Blade movies is less awesome.
This movie was ground breaking when it came out and very surprising, especially since the three main characters were all considered a real man's man type of actor. Patrick Swayze usually played the ladies man, Wesley Snipes played heroes, villains, or Blade, and John Leguizamo usually played a wise guy or a thug. So it was very surprising when these three actors took these rolls.
I love this movie. the first time I watched it was with my best friend, he picked the movie and after we watched it he asked what I thought, I told him I thought it was an amazing movie, he asked if men in dressed creeped me out, I told him, I don't care what a person dresses like, all I care about is the person inside.....he burst into tears and that's when he told me he was gay, and all I said was damn dude, you think I didn't already know that and gave him a hug. I later has a similar experience with my other best friend...yes you can have more then one lol and she just blurted it out while we were having lunch and almost caused me to choke.... and I said girl, wait till my mouth is empty next time. I have a wide range of friends, all unique, and as long as they are happy, I doesn't matter to me if they are gay, straight or anything in between, I connect with people's personalities, I've also stood up for my friends too, because they do get a lot of hate, I'm hoping as time goes on, there will be less hate and more love.
You're a good guy.
And a good friend. Bless you.
♥️ ♥️ ♥️
Underrated movie.
carol Ann was Stockard Channing. If you have seen "Grease", she played Rizzo, a completely different part. Channing was extremely popular, and has a magnificent talent. I first saw her in a comedy written by Joan Rivers, "The Girl Most Likely To", where she displayed her versatility in several phases. Beatrice, the soft-voiced blonde woman, was Blythe Danner, the mother of Gwyneth Paltrow. If you ever treat yourself to "1776", you will see her sing and dance.
Although her scenes were short, I enjoyed what emotion she added to the movie FIRST WIVES CLUB. She's so talented that she doesn't even need lines to convey her emotional pain.
She's also one of the aunts in Practical Magic.
And fell in love with the detective pursuing her (Ed Asner). That was the first I ever saw her too!
She stayed at my hotel. She is a super nice lady and she knew my drama coach from High School. Class act and very funny human is Stockard Channing.
@@dreadpiratexx Isn't it wonderful when people you admire turn out to be nice?!
Note: The old lady with the film history mind that Noxema befriends...she played the librarian that the spirits attack at the beginning of the original "Ghostbusters" movie.
The 'pervert cop' claiming drag queens are 'dangerous... It was pretty clear the hetero men were the dangerous ones. The cop sexually assaulted Vida, the boys gang were readying to rape ChiChi, and Virgil was beating up his wife for the pettiest things. The only danger in the film were those straight men.
So, I'm putting in the recommendation for 1994's "The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert".
"To Wong Foo..." was created as the American response to "Priscilla", which was an Australian film (which I think did the 'Buddy Queens Road Trip' mini-genre much better).
Also recommending 1999's "Flawless", starring Robert DeNiro and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Thanks so VERY much for getting this in reaction rotation. Other reactors have been ignoring this, and it's so funny, heartwarming, fun, and deserving of attention. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I second “Flawless”. That’s an awesome film that doesn’t get enough attention
Speaking of Vida's sexual assault, Patrick Swayze had put a corn cob down the front of his underwear. The surprise on Chris Penn's face at the moment was quite genuine.
Third for Flawless, the 1999 Phillip Seymour Hoffman/Robert De Niro movie, not the 2007 Demi Moore/Michael Caine movie of the same name. I've been looking for anyone who reacts to it, and there doesn't seem to be anyone who does.
I loved Flawless. Another good movie is Kinky Boots.
Seen this a thousand times and laugh every time. R.I.P. to Patrick and robin!! They are missed.
Also, RIP Chris Penn, the cop.
Who in real life was openly gay.
Stockard Channing is everything.
I love that the queens in this movie were played by action hero types. It shows me that the outside isn't the most important, it's what is inside that matters. Happy pride
Not sure if you're including John but he's definitely not an action movie type
The classy, feminine, strong as hell way Vida breaks down that door gets me every time. ❤️
John Leguizamo's role here very much comes out of the talents he'd built in his early stand-up career. While he'd never done drag before, a major part of his routine was doing imitations of his female relatives, who were apparently all various types of "spicy Latina," and after doing it for while he gradually became able to put on a very convincing female presentation.
Yup, I saw Mambo Mouth before this movie, so when this came out. "Iron in one hand, y Crazy Glue en el Otro." So, this performance was no surprise, I knew he would be great.
I saw this at an outdoor screening last summer. we all laughed and giggled. but when the line "Some men need to get hit back" happened, we all stood and cheered!!!
The goofy sheriff is Sean Penn’s brother, Christopher Penn.
One of our family friends (Beth Grant) plays Loretta in the town, she also is in another movie with Patrick Swayze called Donnie Darko. She had an amazing time making this movie.
Plus she’s literally been in almost everything I swear, her career as a character actor is extremely long and she’s been in many Oscar nominated & winning movies. Her Hubby & Daughter (who is gay) are actors as well.
Beth and I were were both born in Gadsden, Alabama.
Patrick & John didn’t get along at all during this movie. John tells several different stories about it in his comedy specials and also about how he met his wife on set.
And another Beth Grant film/series is the Sordid Lives films and TV show. She played Sissy. It's great queer campy fun.
@@sadfaery Yes!! Everyone is in those too, including Leslie Jordan! I absolutely love Leslie. Before Covid started, we went and saw him live in Atlanta. Hubby surprised me with VIP tickets (front row- meet & greet). The pictures we got with him are too funny, every time right before the flash went off he would get up on his tip toes so he looked a little taller. It wasn’t a huge venue, so it was kinda intimate and felt like he’d just invited everyone over for drinks and started telling stories. We had so much fun.
She also played a notable bus passenger in Speed.
@@bluelagoon1980 Yup! Her character’s name was Helen. Her & Sandra Bullock became really good friends on that movie & she played Sandra’s mom in “All About Steve” which also starred Bradley Cooper. She’s been in sooo many Academy Award nominated nominated & actual winning movies. Like her IMDb is 20 miles long I swear!
Love this movie, Swayze especially was so good and sweet and earnest in his performance. Happy Pride, Sam! 🏳️🌈♥️
Yesssss..love this movie. RIP Patrick Swayze who nailed this role to perfection. Another awesome review. 😊
I forgot about the abusive husband. Its hard to watch growing up with a dad like that and then seeing it.
There is so many great actresses and actors in this film that do a phenomenal job immersing themselves into their character that it's kind of hard to separate both entities it's simply just magic I'd like to have to comment on every single video u do cuz its just like I said it's like a best friend and you were watching a film together and you guys are just like capturing oohs and aahs. And also just keep you on your feet at all times
I live for the exchanges between Noxeema & Clara! So adorable and funny 💃🏻
Great reaction love! 💕
“Are you doing a U-ie?” Still makes me laugh every single time I hear it. Both John and Wesley say that this is one of their favorite film roles and would love to play the characters again.
Sheriff Dollard was played by the late Chris Penn. Younger brother to actor Sean Penn who would play Harvey Milk in the film ''Milk''.
Milk is a brilliant movie👍
IRONICALLY, Chris Penn was openly gay.
This is a very "rule of funny" movie, especially regarding how all three of these guys are apparently in drag 24/7 and we never once see them out of it, and it's gotten some criticism for that, but I don't mind at all because shouldn't we want movies with this kind of subject matter to be in any kind of genre? Especially for 1995, the same era as The Birdcage.
This film was noteworthy because RuPaul was nowhere close to being a household name and drag was NOT accepted as a mainstream form of entertainment. Patrick Swayze lost fans over this because his tough guy heartthrob Roadhouse/Dirty Dancing fans were stunned that he would do something as gay as Too Wong Foo. His role, in the context of the time, along with Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo, were headline news of the scandalous kind. The humor-as-deflection helped audiences to open up their hearts to the real messages that the film had to offer up.
@@pacio49 Swayze never wanted to be typecast as "the hunk", so I think he must've loved this role. I remember him saying in an interview that he watched his wife, Lisa Niemi, to get the mannerisms down and he did an amazing job with that. This was so much fun to watch with my girlfriends back in the day - we just loved it and wouldn't have cared about any controversy.
There’s a category of young people who love to criticize the old art that helped pave the way for them to exist as openly as they do (which I know is imperfect, believe me).
It’s like young people somehow wanted today’s consciousness to exist in films from thirty years ago. Like I swear some of them seem to not understand that that was IMPOSSIBLE
@@83gemm Probably the biggest recent case is The Legend of Korra, where a lot of people seem to have already forgotten that the idea of a gay romance in an animated kids' show was COMPLETELY UNHEARD OF (at least in the west) at the time, and they were never going to be able to make something like Steven Universe or The Owl House.
@@Rmlohner I’ve heard negatives about pretty much every LGBTQ+ film or tv show I grew up watching. The big one for me was Will and Grace. “Ooh! Jack is such a stereotype!” Yeah, you ignorant little fetus, and at the time (not that long ago!) the fact that any flamboyant character could be a main character on mainstream tv was groundbreaking! Do they even know what happened to Ellen right before Will and Grace aired? The creators risked so much to make that show and now today’s kids want to crap all over it.
One of my favorite movies of all time, so glad you finally experienced it! There are just SOOOOO many quotable lines that I use to this day ("Little Latin boy in drag, WHY are you crying???"). Back when I lived in Chicago, almost every weekend my friends and I would go out to the gay bars, grab pizza on the way home, then drunkenly watch this movie.
You wanna talk about three actors that have the textbook definition of RANGE, it’s Patrick Swayze (rest in power), Wesley Snipes and Sid the Sloth himself… John Leguizamo. The Qweens Three!!
A fun film and you did of course a great reaction. I love the man with the strawberry bull shirt. Just so funny!!!
Julie Newmar's cameo is excellent, as was Robin Williams!
Great fun all around!
Newmar actually just happened to show up during filming, so they asked if she could do a cameo, and were so excited she agreed that they put her name in the title.
@@Rmlohner Perfect!
Love this film! All the leads are great, and Swayze and Snipes play against their usual type so well!
Leguizamo is just being Leguizamo 😉 - To see him at his absolute best, try to find the recording of his one man show Freak. He's an incredible talent.
I saw this in the theater when I was 15, and my knowledge of drag and LGTBQ+ was very limited at the time. But the scene where Vita's mother gives her that look of disgust, completely broke my heart!
My sister and I saw this in the theatre when it came out and we absolutely loved it!
Happy Pride Month, OGB!
I remember this movie being pretty popular when it came out, mostly because of Wesley Snipes and Patrick Swayze, but also because the title was so long and weird. I was around 16 yrs and in a conservative/rural area, but it was still super popular. Win! 🙂🌈
Chris Penn as the cop was great RIP
"Nothing this pretty can be real" Sam, you and I could talk about this one forever. Thanks again and I hope you get to the others I asked about
Honestly the best line in the film.
I remember when this came out I was a teenager and I had been a Swayze fan for years. They all did such a great job becoming their characters that when his wig gets snatched off it has the shocking effect they were after. By then I had forgotten what he was like in all his other films. I love this movie.
I remember watching this with friends in my late teens and DYING laughing at the cop’s monologue in the bar. It was one of the first times I saw satire taking on people who are so obsessed with other people’s sexuality. Like, you’re thinking in more detail about it than anyone, take a cold shower. I’m cis-het, but as a girl I had already been told that every aspect of my daily life revolves around my sexuality (which, for the record, hadn’t really even kicked in yet- my interests didn’t peak until my late 20s, for whatever reason). I was like, “Damn, I just wanna wear shorts cause it’s hot, I’m not thinking about sex. Why is everyone else?”
It's been too long since I've watched this. It's such a fun movie and way ahead of its time. Possibly even ahead of this time. 🙈
Gwyneth Paltrow's mother is in this and she always plays such likeable characters.
Blythe Danner ❤
@@erinhaury5773 I did not know that was Gweneth Paltros mom!
I loved her in The Great Zantini, and A Christmas Story.
"I don't care what my cousin Lysette says everything I touch doesn't turn into caca, right?"
"I love rough necks; tell me, if I was your bread would you be my butter?"
😂 I LOVE CHI CHI AND THIS MOVIE! Thank you for reacting to it! Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈❤
Some men were born to do drag
Patrick Swayse, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo in this film
Guy Pearce, Hugo Weaving and Terrance Stamp in Priscila, Queen of the Desert
Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie
Robin Williams in Mrs Doubtfire
Jack Lemon and Tony Curtis in Some Like it Hot
EDIT .... even Gene Hackman in The Birdcage !!!
i remember when this movie came out, me and mom saw it at the local movie theater and laughed sooooo much. The one lady btw in the chinese restaurant before Robin Williams comes out the lady that talked to Wesley Snipes was Nomi Campbell one of the famous runway stars from back in the day. Its amazing their outfits and such. Im glad you like it.
I used to be in love with Chi Chi 😍 John Leguizamo stole every scene, he’s super talented
Great reaction! I met Patrick back in 96, he told me To Wong was his favorite movie he did. Great guy. Love your channel, new sub!!
Thanks so much!
You're so fun and expressive to watch along with! Thanks for sharing your reactions with us!
Thanks so much!
I grew up with The Birdcage and To Wong Foo being VHS' that I watched all the time, with my mom and then on my own. They truly are the two OG films for the forward movement and normalization of queer culture in media. The fact that two of the three main leads in this one usually played macho "man's men" and were utter straight heartthrobs and they played their roles so honestly and seriously (as in not a parody, they are fucking hilarious) was SUCH a brave and effective move. When Patrick Swazey died I was definitely mourning Miss Vida. I also love seeing other queer people who didn't get the chance to watch them finally experience them. Also, I was born in '93 so I'm barely older than you.
Happy Pride Month to all in the chat and the people they love!
This movie feels different since I first time I watched it. Things have changed in ways I couldnt have guessed. It was one of the first films I saw that didn't do drag for laughs per se, bugs bunny cartoons and the like, but showed me that drag is a lifestyle choice that people can and do lose family members and friends. The pain of being shunned for something like that. It didn't seem fair.
All three actors made me believe in these characters so much that I did get a little misty eyed when she said, I love you in the end. Not all soulmates are lovers. I think you just meet magical people sometimes. People who breathe color into your life. They spark imagination and courage in us. Beautifully portrayed here. Especially Patrick Swayze, I don't know, maybe because we got more of a back story but I felt his portrayal was very deep. Her poise throughout every ordeal was inspiring to me.
This is a perfect film
Nice reactions to this fun and serious film, Sam!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽So many familiar faces I forgot were in this. There was of course RuPaul and Robin Williams. Blythe Danner (Gwyneth Paltrow's mom), Chris Penn (Sean Penn's younger brother) and the jerk cop that gets beat up. The old lady that plays the librarian at the beginning of "Ghostbusters".
This was filmed in Nebraska. I worked a summer in theatre with a guy who was on the costume crew. He said they were told not to talk to the actors. But he said Stockard Channing was really nice and talked to everyone. He said Chris Penn (The cop) was not well liked. That is what he said don't know if it is true.
You should watch Kinky Boots. The lead guy you'll recognize immediately.
Now you have to watch "The Adventures of Prescilla, Queen of the Desert", and "Connie and Carla"
Lovely reaction and one of my all time favourite films. Gr8 acting, awesome dialogue. Brilliant cast.
Thank you. 😁💕
love this movie 💖 I was 3 or 4 when it came out and what I liked the best was the beginning of the movie. the song and them getting ready. we had it recorded on a vhs tape. I use to watch it a lot cuz it always came on after I finished watching Lion King 😄
Julie Newmar- my favorite Cat Woman and the BEST robot maid in the tv series “My Living Doll” (1964-65). And she sure made the Devil look good in a Twilight Zone episode. RIP Robin & Patrick. Cheers
Thank you for being here doing what you do Sam 👌 always awesome to see you
"Because this trip sssssucks, it ssssucks!!!
This movie was filmed in Nebraska where I am from. The hotel scene was filmed in Omaha where I live its literally just blocks from my house we all skipped school to go to the New Tower Inn to see them film! The Train and town are also in Nebraska 😁 Unfortunately they tore down the hotel years ago now its a coffee stop and a Deluth Traiding store such a shame cause the hotel was iconic especially the pool!
I have been waiting for you to react to this one! OMGGGYEESSS!
You are a gem, Sam. I'm glad you finally had a chance to see this huge part of our history :)
One of my all time favs
3:30 When he says "Sometimes it just takes a fairy" take a moment to notice that the three of them are dressed like the fairies from sleeping beauty.
Torch Song Trilogy is a must-see... Comedy/Drama
i didnt know i needed to see someone watch this. im still crying
Another great movie for Pride Month is “The Crying Game” with Stephen Rea and Jaye Davidson. It’s a thriller/romantic drama about loving someone unconditionally. I think you’d really enjoy it.🏳️🌈
Jaye Davidson was also amazing in Stargate!
@@iChristyD Yes, he was. There can only be one Ra!
So proud to be watching you do your thing. Big hug from california
I was 12 when this came out. It is a near and dear to my heart movie for me. Yet another movie I have never gotten sick of.
One of my favorites this is a classic.
Great performances from all. Great reaction.
Ugh... I love this movie! The 3 main characters are some of my favorite actors. I Love John Leguizamo which is why I watched this in the first place and OMG I thought what can't this man do...
13:59 you and I friend, it’s so enraging.
I haven’t watch that movies in years, I had forgotten how heartbreaking it can be.
😌Knew u were gonna love it. How could u not? What a fantabulous story, no? Like an after school special we should’ve had about LGBTQ+ acceptance. While silly & lighthearted…it really did have an all inclusive moral of the story that Americans (sadly) really need in 2022. I can’t believe how far we came from the ‘90’s - to have the GOP ruin everything w/their constant bigotry…in 2022! Like, when TF did Jesus say to hate everyone not white & straight?! Ugh. Anyway, don’t wanna end on a negative note - happy Pride, Sam & know u have freaking *oodles* of allies in the (boring AF😉) straight crew who love & support u 100%.😘🖖
Hurray! I just suggested this movie!
I was an extra in this film, I was on the commuter train. A lot of fun to film but I couldn't listen to "Brick House" for awhile. Most of the movie was filmed in Loma, Nebraska, just outside of Lincoln.
That’s amazing!
There's a lovely, yet sorrowful and beautiful story I think you would like called A Home at the End of the World.
Oh my goodness! I was just thinking about watching this movie again too! Okay, so this is a definite sign ❤️ and Happy Pride Month too! 🏳️🌈😄
LOL! Patrick Swayze was once asked which one he thought made the best-looking woman. He said John Leguizamo hands down. “That little ass! Are you kidding me?” LOL!
"Ozark" series (Netflix's answer to "Breaking Bad") should be on the pride list. Also, "Any Day Now" (True story about a couple trying to adopt a kid)
6:44 “Oh, what in gay hell!?” 😂🌈
This is my Mom & I’s go to movie!!!
First off, Happy Pride. Be proud of who you are no matter what anyone says. Now, I kniw I suggested it before, but I will try again. I think you should check out Team StarKid here on RUclips. Their works are musicals and there is LGBTQIA+ representation in some of their shows (some more obvious than others). That said, one that I think is really good for this month is Firebringer. I don't want to give too much away, but it does suggest anyone can be with anyone. It is a little course language wise, but the acting, comedy, messages, and songs/music is worth it. Just a fun suggestion.
This was filmed near my hometown, Loma Nebraska.
Such a good movie and the glow up from Chi chi is like a Ru girl goin to allstars 😹
TRUUUUUUE
I love Drag Race
You should do the "straight" version of this - "Some Like It Hot". You would expect a late 50's movie with its lead characters fired to dress as women to be all kinds of cringe, but it's not. Definitely worth your time.
I actually reacted to that not too long ago! Here’s the link to it!
ruclips.net/video/qRnjgbl3xWA/видео.html
Well now I'm embarrassed. Oh well, nobody's perfect!
So excited to see you so this movie. It's one of my all time favorite films ever.
This is an American classic! ❤️ 🌈
You just earned yourself a new Patron. I want to watch the whole thing with you.
I was in high school when I saw this, and this was the 90s, so not a lot of exposure to drag queen, aside from RuPaul. I thought Drag was a theatrical costume choice, for usually for comedy. I watched it mainly for the name stars, I had no idea it was a whole lifestyle. I was not expecting this, and I really enjoyed it. It was incredible, and I will always love it. Excellent choice for Pride month. Not sure if you have seen Priscilla, but I'll join the comments and say you must watch it.
Thanks so much!!
My favourite movie ever
Breathtaking and exquisite
A childhood favorite
Thank you for putting the full title of the film and not just To Wong Fu. Great reaction.
Such a fun movie even with the big issues brought up. A few others that you should watch for Pride month in my opinion. Lust In The Dust is a must! Priscilla Queen Of The Desert is good. One that a lot of people don’t even know about, Mel Brooks’ To Be Or Not To Be. It’s not solely about LGTB but it’s great.
I couldn’t believe this movie when it first came out. Another movie that shocked me were the original French version of Birdcage (La Cage aux folles), and the 70s movie Boys in the Band, and Rent.
super ahead of its time. haven’t thought about it in a while, thank you for the reaction!
With this movie, you can't help but smile. There is no way it won't put you in a good mood. Check your pulse if you don't laugh at least twice. Lol
Patrick used his dancer skills to bring such grace in his movements. But I think John stole the movie for me. His comedic timing was on point.
I understand why Wesley was chosen to play Noxema, because they wanted the "it" action heroes of that time to play the opposite of their usual macho characters.
I honestly wished, though, that Rupaul played Wesley's part.
I saw this in the movie theaters when it came out and I remember the contraversy around the leads. I too did not expect them to touch on those difficult topics sexual assault (the cop & group of guys) & women being battered. I was always upset that the interviews were mainly about the men dressed in drag and it the important topics in this movie.
I love this movie so much! Thank you.
One thing this movie illustrates well, is how a lot of homophobia really stems from plain old misogyny. Dullard (and Virgil as well to a degree) hates the drag queens because he's actually afraid that a man who is attracted to men, will treat him the way he treats women. And we saw how Dullard treats women.
Omg I've been waiting for anyone to react to this it's the absolute best happy pride all
Great movie, great cast,love this movie, super funny 😄😄😄😄
I'm so happy you loved this one. It's one of my favorites 😍 .
PFLAG love, I'm glad I was the veteran with a military ID to laugh at the comedy of the state trooper intimidation. Straight but with a youthful annoyance of authority in the 80's.
You really need to see
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. It's an amazing film that inspired this.. I would also recommend The Bird cage, which is simply hilarious from start to finish..
Hopefully I'll be watching Priscilla soon!
Also, I've already reacted to the Birdcage! Absolutely hilarious

Is it just me....or did that scene where the cop was rambling on at the bar sound like an improved poem?! Lmao
