The great improvisational comedy team of Mike Nichols and Elaine May reunited to (respectively) direct and write this update of the French comedy La Cage Aux Folles. Robin Williams stars as a gay Miami nightclub owner who is forced to play it straight and ask his drag-queen partner (Nathan Lane) to hide out when Williams's son invites his prospective--and highly conservative--in-laws and fiancée to a meet-and-greet dinner party. Gene Hackman and Dianne Wiest play the straight-laced senator and his wife, and Calista Flockhart (from television's Ally McBeal) plays their daughter in a culture-clash with outrageous consequences. May's witty screenplay incorporates some pointed observations about the political landscape of the 1990s and takes a sensitive approach to the comedy's underlying drama. Topping off the action is Hank Azaria in a scene-stealing role as Williams's and Lane's flamboyant housekeeper, "Agador Spartacus." --Jeff Shannon
Product Description

Anglo America Problem. ! April 13, 2010
J. Brennan (Dublin, Dublin, IE)
Delivery was excellent ~ 2 weeks ahead of time. !
Unfortunately, this DVD is not compatible for showing outside of America. !
I feel it would be too much trouble to return and claim a refund ~ even if this were possible.
If any American resident would like a very funny DVD for free ~ contact me
