Fantastic!

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2006)

This film introduced me to a new genre of film altogether. After reading the back of the video case I was slightly embarrassed by the outline of the movie. After watching I was captured by the pure brilliance of the songs and the absolutely brilliant ending.
The main character is Hedwig, a German transsexual singer. A weird main character perhaps but with such an immense character it will be impossible to turn away. Parts of the story are told through song and these songs are extremely emotive.
This has to be my favourite "cult classic" of all time, it's unique in every way and it's one of those films which just has to be watched! 10 out of 10, magnificent!
