Long before gay romantic comedies (see: LOVE, SIMON, HEARTSTOPPER, the upcoming BROS) were championed in the mainstream, Jamie Babbit's BUT I'M A CHEERLEADER blazed a hilarious trail. Stunned when her conservative parents decide she's gay, Megan (Natasha Lyonne) is sent to True Directions, a boot camp built to choreograph her way to a straight life. Her instant attraction to fellow camper, and rebellious teen lesbian, Graham (Clea DuVall) might just tumble those plans. Offered in the context of 23 years of progress (and recent pitfalls, Say), don't miss this extended director's cut of the comedy classic.
