But I'm A Cheerleader
Natasha
Lyonne plays 17 year old Megan -- confident, strongwilled, and yes, a cheerleader,
who is sent to "homosexual rehab camp" by her conservative parents
who fear that she is a lesbian. Of course, the longer she spends in the camp
with her new friend Graham, the more she begins to question just how fixed her
sexuality really is.

Reviews
IndieWIRE
"Jamie Babbit's directorial debut, But I'm a Cheerleader, is hilarious -- for about 30 minutes. It decelerates quickly after that. But where else are you going to see RuPaul as a reformed gay gone straight? Julie Delpy as a lipstick lesbian? Bud Cort and Mink Stole as stuffy conservative parents? A set design of pastel schtick?"Filmcritic.com
"First-time feature director Jamie Babbit (whose few credits including directing the MTV series "Undressed" and acting as script supervisor on The Game) doesn't appear to have much ability behind the camera, which becomes painfully apparent after only a few minutes."Box Office Magazine
"If good satire is fearless and takes no prisoners, But I'm A Cheerleader is craven and compromised.
