Directed by Nicholas Steller, the film is a showcase for […]

Dreamgirls - not just for homosexuals

March 17th, 2008 · No Comments

Recovering for Saturday’s gin-fueled St. Patrick’s day party, I watched Dreamgirls on HBO.  This movie was surprisingly pretty good, and my white guilt and heterosexuality didn’t ruin it for me at all.   Cheers to Dreamgirls!
