Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) Part 4 of 9

An anatomically incorrect rock musical. Hedwig (John Cameron Mitchell), born a boy named Hansel in East Berlin, fell in love with an American G.I. (Maurice Dean Wint) and underwent a sex-change operation in order to marry him and flee to the West. Unfortunately, nothing worked out quite as it was supposed to - years later, Hedwig is leading her rock band on a tour of the U.S., telling her life story through a series of concerts at Bilgewater Inn seafood restaurants. Her tour dates coincide with those of arena-rock star Tommy Gnosis (Michael Pitt), a wide-eyed boy who once loved Hedwig... but then left with all her songs. Written and directed by John Cameron Mitchell.

I love how Hedwig's main wig is inspired by Farrah Fawcett. Is there anybody else who thinks Hedwig looks a bit like Jennifer Aniston with that dark blonde wig?
