If you don’t love the insanely awesome 1958 classic comedy, “Auntie Mame” starring beloved actress Rosalind Russell, you might have to turn in your gay card. The original book, by Patrick Dennis, the stage production, also starrring Miss Russell, AND the film have helped define “gay” humor of the “camp” kind. Auntie Mame is bold, brassy, bawdy and opinionated and she might just be the first iconic drag queen that helped define “gay” for a generation (or two) of LGBTQ people. It’s also freaking hilarious.
