BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER at HYPERREAL FILM CLUB

  • Hyperreal Film Club 301 Chicon Street Austin, TX, 78702 United States (map)

The vitals:
Monday, March 3
7:00 ~ Doors
7:30 ~ BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER co-presented with Sapphic SIngles

All-American teen Megan (Natasha Lyonne) doesn’t have a queer bone in her body, she’s a cheerleader for Christ’s sake! Nevertheless, suspicious tendencies like vegetarianism and breast-staring land Megan at an in-patient conversion therapy camp where she meets a colorful cast of gay teens, confronts her sexuality, and woos an aloof futch with RBF. 

BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER (1999) is a high camp, high femme send up of the religious right. The best time to watch queer classic BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER is with your high school GSA in 30 minute increments over lunch meetings and the second best time is on March 3rd at the lesbian mingle/movie Bingo screening hosted by Hyperreal and @sapphicsingles, featuring lesbian-themed chainmail Bingo prizes from @shopdesiredobjects
