But I'm a Cheerleader 1999  R, 81 min.
Genre: Comedy
Director: Jamie Babbit
Cast: Natasha Lyonne, Clea DuVall, Cathy Moriarty, Bud Cort, Mink Stole, RuPaul, Michelle Williams, Melanie Lynskey, Julie Delpy, Richard Moll
This satire, based on the premise that homosexuality can be cured, features Natasha Lyonne as the cute, all-American, Christian cheerleader: Megan. When friends and family suspect that she has homosexual tendencies, they pack Megan off to the True Directions Program where she–predictably–meets lesbian Graham (Clea DuVall) and falls in love. Fresh ideas do not abound in this plot.
