about the film
After Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze) and Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes) win a major New York City drag contest and a trip to Hollywood, they are persuaded to take the inexperienced Drag Princess Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo) with them. They hire a beat-up old Cadillac and set off for Los Angeles, but their car breaks down in a small town in the middle of nowhere. With just their wits and an endless supply of garish costumes, they transform the town and everyone who lives there, until homophobic Sheriff Dollard (Chris Penn) catches up with them.
