They say no movie is perfect but anyone who’s seen The Birdcage will beg to differ, because this memorable Mike Nichols comedy starring Robin Williams, Nathan Lane, Gene Hackman and Dianne Wiest is flawless! The hit noughties comedy was the remake of the 1978 Franco-Italian film La Cage aux Folles, which was an adaptation of a popular musical.
The film is an uproarious comedy of errors that follows Armand and Albert, a couple who own a popular Miami drag club. When Armand's son decides to marry a senator’s daughter, the family has to come up with an elaborate lie to hide their lifestyle from the uptight senator and his wife. The Birdcage is a hilarious and heartwarming comedy about family, identity and marriage and 26 years on, it’s still as relevant as ever. On its birthday month, revisit this classic gem for some great laughs!
