About A Very Sordid Wedding
Product Description Marriage equality comes to small town Texas. A serial killer, drag queens and a dysfunctional family collide driving toward an explosive night. Meanwhile, a memorial service at a bar and an Anti-Equality rally at a church both go off the rails. Review A Very Sordid Wedding offers some undeniably entertaining moments, and its talented ensemble, clearly encouraged to pull out all the stops, delivers their comic shtick with admirable gusto. It s also impossible to entirely resist a film featuring Whoopi Goldberg as a priest officiating a gay wedding while clad in a rainbow-hued robe. --Hollywood Reporter A Very Sordid Wedding - Much More Than A Wonderful Movie, But A Game-Changer In LGBT Politics --Huffington Post You ll get a gay rights sermon with your booze and cigarettes and Southern charm the way the good lord intended. --FilmThreat.com About the Director Del Shores has written, directed and produced successfully across studio and independent film, network and cable television and regional and national touring theatre. Shores' career took off with the play Daddy's Dyin' (Who's Got The Will?) in 1987, which ran two years, winning many Los Angeles theatre awards, including LA Weekly's Best Production and Best Writing. The play has subsequently been produced in over 2,500 theatres worldwide. A movie version of Daddy's Dyin' was released in 1990 by MGM starring Beau Bridges, Tess Harper, Judge Reinhold, Keith Carradine and Beverly D'Angelo. Shores wrote the screenplay and executive produced the film. Sordid Lives, his fourth play, opened in Los Angeles in 1996 and ran 13 sold-out months. The play went on to win 14 Drama-Logue Theatre Awards, including three for Shores for writing, directing and producing. There have since been over 300 additional stage productions of the play. In 1999, Shores wrote and directed the film version of Sordid Lives starring Beau Bridges, Delta Burke, Olivia Newton-John, Bonnie Bedelia, Leslie Jordan and Beth Grant along with most of the cast from the play. Opening in only eight theatres across the country, the little film that could took in nearly two million dollars in its limited release. The movie became a cult phenomenon and became the longest running film in the history of Palm Springs with a record ninety-six weeks. The movie won many festival awards including Best Film at the New York Independent Film & Video Festival, Atlanta Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival, Austin Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival, South Beach Film Festival, Memphis International Film Festival and the San Diego International Film Festival and won a total of thirteen Audience Awards. In 2002 Twentieth Century Fox released the DVD/Video, which has now sold over 300,000 units.
