Torch Song Trilogy

“It takes a lot of guts and a helluva sense of humor to live life in Arnold's shoes.”

★ 7.4/10 TMDB 1988-12-14 119 min

Arnold Beckoff is looking for love and acceptance, but as a gay man working as a female impersonator in 1970s New York City, neither come easily. After a series of heartaches, Arnold believes he has found the love of his life in Alan, and the couple make plans to adopt. But when tragedy strikes, Arnold's life is shaken to its very core, leading to a confrontation with his overbearing mother, who has never approved of her son's lifestyle.
