Synopsis

The confessional, behind-the-scenes showbiz melodrama goes under the knife -- so to speak -- in this drag comedy. Girls Will Be Girls casts three male performers in the roles of Evie Harris (Jack Plotnick), a has-been starlet of the '70s who has since gone to seed in her decaying Hollywood home; her best friend and domestic servant, Coco (Clinton Leupp); and Varla (Jeffrey Roberson), the daughter of a deceased peer/rival of Evie's who shows up to rent out a room in her home. The tension among the trio of women escalates as Evie prepares for a pull-out-all-the-stops television special commemorating her past career glories, which include sundry disaster movies and TV variety shows. What Evie doesn't know is that the nave-seeming Varla has a debt to settle for her deceased mom, and will stop at nothing to seek vengeance. All three lead actors developed their characters in stage shows and cabaret acts; writer/director Richard Day wrote for such television shows as Ellen and The Larry Sanders Show before helming this film, his debut. After its 2003 Sundance premiere, Girls Will Be Girls was acquired by IFC Films for a theatrical release. ~ Michael Hastings, All Movie Guide

4.0 out of 5 stars Watch it!, Jun 28 2004
By Steve (Atlanta, GA, USA) - See all my reviews
I thought this movie was brilliant, ESPECIALLY for a low-budget project starring drag queens. Funny. Irreverent. Great sets. Great script. Great acting.

If you're uptight and can't take an abortion or rape joke here-and-there, than this is not your thing. But if you're an intelligent person with a sense of humor who is at least mildly urbane, you'll love it. If only for the sets. Or if only for the one liners. Or if only for the performances.

Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars different? What an understatement!, Jun 21 2004
This wildly unapaulagetic 2003 re-make of the classic, Girls will Be Girls is a mixed bag, but the end ends up saving a lot of chaos that the first hour brings. The movie was kinda funny, not drop dead funny but it has some witt. The movie is very different, direction wise and script wise. I think the story is good but most of the scripting is pretty weak (besides the amazing climax). Overall funny, but not quite worth the twenty-five bucks I paid, although the special features made up for some of the movies' non funny slow points...

5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe the funniest movie I've ever seen., Jun 16 2004
By Joe Nelson (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
Seriously, I just about peed in my pants the whole time. My roommate and I were watching this movie and couldn't get over how funny it is. There are some slow parts, and in general you have to really dig that trashy, dirty and dish kind of drag humor, but if you do, you will love this movie
