Superstar in a Housedress: The Life and Legend of Jackie Curtis
(2005)
In the heyday of Andy Warhol's legendary hub of art, subculture, and
insanity known as the Factory, one performer made his mark like no other:
Jackie Curtis. A wildly creative, avant-garde performer, poet, playwright, and
longtime friend and collaborator of Warhol's, Curtis was well known as a
cross-dressing phenom whose personal life went even further and was even
wilder than anything onstage and onscreen. In this loving, dazzling, and,
above all else, shocking memorial to Curtis-who died tragically of a drug
overdose in 1985-filmmaker Craig Highberger delivers a fascinating oral
biography of the drag queen, including interviews with such counterculture
luminaries as Holly Woodlawn, Joe Dallesandro, Paul Morrissey, and Michael
Musto. DVD INCLUDES: Producer/director Highberger's award-winning
documentary film Superstar in a Housedress, narrated by Lily Tomlin.
