America’s best-known gay novelist, now resident in Paris, tries to prepare for a dinner party but is interrupted by fantasies about his personal trainer, an anonymous sex date, and a ghastly lunch with the countess.

Synopsis

Follow Sandra Bernhard as L.A. dykes on bikes escort her through the streets of tinsel town in this world premiere screening of Confessions of a Pretty Lady. Old home movies and interviews with Sandra Bernhard's mother, aunt, and uncle give a personal touch to Kris Clarke and Sarah Mortimer's colorful and sexy portrait of the controversial ("there are different ways of being a feminist") comedienne. This engaging documentary (from the makers of the hit, Armistead Maupin Is a Man I Dreamt Up) features candid interviews with Bernhard, Martin Scorcese, Paul Mooney, Advocate editor Jeff Yarborough, and yes, Camille Paglia. Extensive footage of Bernhard's celluloid performances in King of Comedy, Without You I'm Nothing, and Sandra After Dark are complemented by exhilarating live footage of her “Giving Till It Hurts” show at Madison Square Garden.
