My favorite Patrick Swayze movie is "To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything, Julie Newmar."

Oh yeah, I've heard good things about that movie. Thanks. I'll have to check it out.


Meanwhile, I have to add Donnie Darko to the list of well-liked films that I just don't get. I've tried to watch it three times and I just can't do it. Maybe it gets better towards the end?

Seeing three very strong and masculine men, Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes), Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze), and Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo), dressed in drag and pulling off performances as drag queens was particularly wonderful. Patrick said he did it to honor his mother, and I think you can see honoring of female relatives in all three performances. Seeing Wesley Snipes do something other than an action movie is a real treat.
