Paris Is Burning
Where does voguing come from, and what, exactly, is throwing shade? This landmark documentary provides a vibrant snapshot of the 1980s through the eyes of New York City’s African American and Latinx Harlem drag-ball scene. Made over seven years, PARIS IS BURNING offers an intimate portrait of rival fashion “houses,” from fierce contests for trophies to house mothers offering sustenance in a world rampant with homophobia, transphobia, racism, AIDS, and poverty. Featuring legendary voguers, drag queens, and trans women — including Willi Ninja, Pepper LaBeija, Dorian Corey, and Venus Xtravaganza — PARIS IS BURNING brings it, celebrating the joy of movement, the force of eloquence, and the draw of community.
VexMovies Review:
Paris Is Burning – was the biggest surprise of the year 1990 Most movies, even the greatest ones, evaporate like mist once you’ve returned to the real world; they leave memories behind, but their reality fades free quickly. But not Paris Is Burning. There is movie in my mind, but the favorable but best movie means having a certain style that symbolizes a symbol of an movie to tell a story from the moving pictures of both an entity and a turning point of an existence. shows you change, inspiration, or influence.
There are some stages in this movie that I will remember them until death. Everytime I watch this movie online, I really enjoy the music, it is just pure soul of that movie. I still remember the first time I watched Paris Is Burning online. It was simply an awesome experience that I remember to this day.
…Damn, I need to watch these movie online again. It was so good! I uploaded this movie to VexMovies, you can now watch movie online free.
