fantastic odyssey

Rating: 9/10 (19 October 2001)

This film far out-lived my expectations. It's much more than just a musical about a drag queen. There are elements of deep, soul-bearing psychology, self-examination, judgement,perception,mythology,love...all against an element of history which metaphorically represents the struggle of Hedwig. The music ROCKS too. A hero for anyone thats willing to face the music, so to speak, Hedwig is the personification of what many fear: a soul unwilling to stop thriving.Hedwig ROCKS!
