Watched the utterly charming Kinky Boots. Check it out right now. There's a great character in Lola, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor (Serenity, Love Actually). The story is about a man who unwillingly inherits a dying shoe factory, and after several false starts (naturally), comes to an unexpected conclusion that he should restructure his market: "to women who are men." His inspiration and designer is Lola, a cabaret drag act who sings the hell out of "I Want to Evil," "Whatever Lola Wants," and a great medley that includes "These Boots Were Made for Walking" and "In These Shoes."
It's funny and interesting without being preachy, and is quite smart.
See it!
