Bitchin'

20 minutes of a tasteless/sentimental film about drama camp.

I know. I'm sorry.

Noticed that the two male characters who played the teachers could have been played in exactly the same way...exactly...by female actors. Burnt-out whiskey and cigarette voiced women aged 60 would have done the very same job. Exactly.

And the Latina MTF who is nothing but either a) cold, attacking bitch or b) a pouty, needy and tragic victim, is found by the one straight guy in the place to be "a wonderful person."

Do these people either a) read the scripts they write or b) watch the scenes they direct?

Oh Christ, "Camp"? God, what an awful movie. Despite his perfectly sculpted body,the "straight" camper's straight credentials are shaky in my book. His half-hearted attempt to seduce the drag queen- WTF? And the drag queen's one night stand with the sassy latina- double WTF! At least their was a bit about colorblind casting being stupid. Don't know if you got to it- A black camper points out how ridiculous it is for him to play Tevye in "Fiddler on the Roof," and convinces the teachers to let the black campers do a tribute to famous black dancers.
