Director Jamie Babbit took to the big chair for the first time to bring us 1999's 'But I'm a Cheerleader,' which operates in three separate genres at the same time; satire, romance, and comedy. Natasha Lyonne is the titular cheerleader, the most popular girl in her high school who just happens to be a lesbian. Her parents are unwilling to accept this, and so they send her away for the summer to a 'conversion center.'
At the conversion center, which is euphemistically referred to as a 'therapy camp,' she meets a whole raft of characters who are very much determined to do anything apart from stop being gay. Instead, the experience re-enforces her convictions and leads to her falling in love. Look out for both Clea Duvall and RuPaul putting in star turns as her camp-mates.
