People can celebrate the 20th anniversary of a classic lesbian film when But I’m a Cheerleader: Director’s Cut arrives on Digital 4K Ultra HD on Dec. 8, from Lionsgate.
From Primetime Emmy-nominated director Jamie Babbit (2017, Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series, Silicon Valley), the film features a cast including Natasha Lyonne, Clea DuVall, Melanie Lynskey, RuPaul Charles, Michelle Williams, Julie Delpy, Cathy Moriarty and more.
The unrated film follows teenager Megan (played by Lyonne), whose suburban existence filled with friends, cheerleading and all-American fun is upended when her straight-laced parents suspect she may be a lesbian. In a panic, they send her to True Directions, a “rehabilitation” camp run by the strict and prudish Mary (Moriarty), to mount an intervention led by counselor Mike (Charles). Megan dutifully follows the program—until she develops feelings for another camper (DuVall).
The 20th Anniversary But I’m a Cheerleader: Director’s Cut Digital 4K Ultra HD will be available for the suggested retail price of $9.99. It includes an audio commentary, a making-of featurette and “But I’m a Cheerleader Class Reunion,” among other special features.
