Cloris Leachman's final film casts her as the grandmother of a drag queen. Phil Connell's "Jump, Darling" probably won't be the easiest movie to find - I rented it from a local video store (yes, they still exist) - but I recommend trying to find it. This understated but complex movie focuses both on the young man's life as a drag queen, but also on the grandmother's old age, and how these two relate to each other.
I understand that this is Connell's directorial debut. Well, I certainly hope that he keeps making movies. Films like this one are far more interesting than the latest movie whose plot is Tom Cruise narrowly avoiding all danger. By contrast, this movie creates a cerebral story without CGI or car chases or any of that crap. Just the plain stuff. Definitely try to see it.
