    +Michelle Valentino re: 'A friend just recommended this film to me, for a performance by Philip Seymour Hoffman...DeNiro as a stroke victim and Hoffman playing a drag queen who becomes his vocal instructor. Has anyone seen it?' - Yes, have screened this title. We review in themed movie rounds (current movie round is Foodies) and considering this one as a possibility for a future movie round.  If you enjoy offbeat character studies, it might indeed be a nice pick for you.
