Renato (La grande bouffes Ugo Tognazzi) and Albin (Diaboliques Michel Serrault)a middle-aged gay couple who are the manager and star performer at a glitzy drag club in St. Tropezagree to hide their sexual identities, along with their flamboyant personalities and home decor, when the ultraconservative parents of Renatos sons fiancée come for a visit. This elegant comic scenario kicks off a wild and warmhearted farce about the importance of nonconformity and the beauty of being true to oneself. A modest French comedy that became a breakout art-house smash in America, Edouard Molinaros La Cage aux Folles inspired a major Broadway musical and the blockbuster remake The Birdcage. But with its hilarious performances and ahead-of-its-time social message, theres nothing like the audacious, dazzling original movie.
