Entertainment Reviews:
One emerges from this film not only with a new vocabulary and a fresh way of viewing the straight world but with a bracing object lesson in understanding what society "role models" are all about.

Chicago Reader
The way that [director Jennie Livingstone] looks at the subculture and just lets them tell their own stories is just so wonderful.

Even better for last year's book release, if you did not get a chance to see this movie thirty years ago, do not miss it now.

Rating: 3/4 --
What I saw was a successful attempt by the outsiders to dramatize how success and status in the world often depend on props you can buy, or steal, almost anywhere -- assuming you have the style to know how to use them.

Paris Is Burning is a masterpiece that works as well as it does because its point of view is not that of someone instructing the audience like a tenured professor.

Product Description:
