Kinky Boots

Streaming video - 2006

Featuring a Golden Globe®-nominated performance by Chiwetel Ejiofor, as well as terrific performances by Joel Edgerton, Sarah-Jane Potts, and Nick Frost, KINKY BOOTS is a refreshing, feel-good film that proves the best way to fit in is to stand out. The film was inspired by the real-life story of a family-owned shoe factory in England and ultimately inspired a Broadway musical that earned six Tony Awards, including Best Original Score, Best Actor and Best Musical.For generations, the Price family has made very sensible, very conservative shoes for men. But to save the business from imminent bankruptcy, young Charlie Price (Edgerton) turns to an unlikely new creative consultant: a fabulous drag performer (Ejiofor) whose creative style and w...ild designs are a breath of fresh air in the stuffy old factory.
