Connie and Carla

Synopsis:

After accidentally witnessing a mafia hit in the Windy City, gal pals Connie and Carla skip town for L.A., where they go way undercover as singers working the city’s dinner theater circuit … as drag queens. Now, it’s not enough that they become big hits on the scene; things get extra-weird when Connie meets Jeff — a guy she’d like to be a woman with. —Anonymous

Quick Thoughts:

Drag queens, showtunes, and camp – what more can you ask for! Oh, and throw in a mob boss trying to kill our leads, who are hiding away in LA as the showtunes singing drag queens. However beneath the camp and comedy, there’s actually a heartfelt story about friendship that borders on sisterhood. Along with a story of acceptance and family. Written and starring Nia Vardalos, known for her other double header in “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”, this comedy film is worth watching.
