But I'm a Cheerleader: Still Kicking and Screaming (with Glitter!)

Forget pom-poms and perfect smiles, 'But I'm a Cheerleader' flips the script on everything you thought you knew about the sport. This isn't your average high school comedy; it's a sharp, satirical, and surprisingly heartwarming look at sexuality, identity, and the pressure to conform.

Megan, your typical, bubbly cheerleader, is suddenly shipped off to True Directions, a conversion therapy camp, after her friends and family suspect she's a lesbian. The film cleverly skewers societal expectations, religious extremism, and the very idea of 'curing' someone's sexuality.

Beyond the pastel-perfect aesthetic and campy humor, 'But I'm a Cheerleader' offers a genuinely empowering message. It's about finding yourself, embracing your truth, and kicking down societal norms, all while wearing a fabulous cheerleader uniform (or not!). Whether you're a longtime fan or a curious newcomer, this movie is a must-see for its wit, its heart, and its unapologetic celebration of individuality. So grab some snacks, maybe some pink glitter, and get ready to cheer!
