Leading Ladies screening at the 2011 Stella Artois QFest
The Camparis are a trio of strong-willed women: Sheri, a former dancing champion who has become a demanding stage mother; youngest daughter Tasi, a sometimes bratty starlet who's Sheri's protégé; and eldest daughter Toni, a calm family mediator. On one fateful night, Toni's best friend ("So You Think You Can Dance" winner Benji Schwimmer) takes her to his favorite gay club, where Toni meets and unexpectedly falls for Mona. The night is cut short, however, when Tasi reveals to Toni that she's pregnant, which has unexpected repercussions for all of the film's "leading ladies." Variety gives high praise to this "impressive first feature," which "skillfully weaves disparate elements without missing a step. Expertly shot, energetically choreographed numbers boast a lightness of touch miles away from the freneticism of Baz Luhrmann, while the tyro thesps' unaffected performances add a note of sweetness to pic's atmosphere of guileless simplicity."
