The Birdcage
Body
The great improvisational comedy team of Mike Nichols and Elaine May reunited to (respectively) direct and write this update of the French comedy La Cage Aux Folles.
Armand (Robin Williams) and Albert (Nathan Lane) have built the perfect life for themselves tending to their gay Miami nightclub. But their pastel tranquility is shaken when Armand's son announces that he's getting married to the daughter of ultra-conservative Senator Keeley (Gene Hackman)…and they're all getting together for dinner! Can Armand and Albert transform themselves into Mr. and Mrs. Family Values in time? It'll take the performance of their lives, but they'll do anything and everything to pull the chiffon over Keeley's eyes!
