This movie was a xmas tradition for years with friends of mine: midnight mass; back to their place; and I wrote the "letters from Santa" to go with the kid's gifts, while watching this movie. Hadn't done it for three years; did xmas brunch this year; and found out the 'kids' (now in high school) favorite memory of xmas was me drunkenly belting out this tune downstairs when they were 'asleep'. They're all straight; I'm gay: the 'kids' have always cheerfully acknowledged me as their gay 'uncle'!
I totally wanna be like John Cameron Mitchell when I grow up, but then again, don't we all? It's people like this, creating art like this, looking gorgeous like this, that makes being gay SO FUCKING AWESOME!
oh wow! I have been trying to find the person who played this role for the last few days. kept coming across this person and I'm like... I don't remember you in the film. Almost unrecognisable. I wondered if he was a real like drag queen or something (random note lol)
This song has SUCH a beautiful sentiment. I'm moved every time I hear it. And the animation sequence is genius; it really helps convey the message. Just beautiful!
Thank you so much!! I love this film and this song is REALLY part of our origin like creatures on this world :D

That would be Miriam Shor as Yitzhak (the one with the beard?) she is in drag for the movie. :D So much gender bending, so little time!

This musical made my pedantic heart jump with glee, as I watched everyone around me begin to spontaneously and unwittingly quote Plato.

I love this song so much. Also, Yizhak (that's his name, right?) is hot <3 XD
I love when he sings. Such a beautiful feminine voice coming out of such a masculine looking person lol
