They screened Showgirls at the Academy Museum last night and as seen above Elizabeth Berkley introduced it and she got all choked up when calling out LGBTQ people as standing by her and the movie and we love to see it! Made me cry. So happy she's embraced the film too and that the world's finally come around (or at least the ones who get it) to it not just being a camp masterpiece -- which it is -- but also a genuinely perfect satire of the trash culture that is America. Nobody gets us like Verhoeven. And queer people.

I watched it a few weeks ago and it's still great. The tension between Berkeley and Gershon is the best part of the film. The cinematography, also really cool.
