About "To Wong Foo"
Elite Manhattan drag queens Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes) and Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze) win a trip to Hollywood to compete in the "Miss Drag Queen of America Pageant." Before they depart, Vida persuades Noxeema to take along the inexperienced "drag princess" Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo) as their protégé. Thus begins a road trip filled with laughs, lessons, new friends, and a lot of love.
Both Swayze and Laguizamo were nominated for Golden Globes for their performances.
This film is rated PG-13.
