This is an fabulously great film with a wonderful performance by John Hurt in the role of Quentin Crisp, a flamboyant English homosexual in the days when being such was anything but comfortable.

Quentin Crisp grew up in an era where homosexuality was not an option as a life style, Still, he managed to make it in a world that was decidedly unfriendly to those like him. Witty and self assured, he lived his life as he wanted, despite the hardships he faced due to his self professed homosexuality.

An absolutely must-see.
