Paris is Burning (1991) - ***1/2
In Paris is Burning, Jeannie Livington's 1991 documentary, we are taken into the world of New York drag queens in the late 80's. We learn the origin of "vogueing", watch queens prepare for and compete in "balls" and hear sad stories of violence and ridicule. A thoughtful and well-made film - I only wish it was a bit longer.
