Product Description Hedwig is an ambitious glam-rocker who comes to America determined to find fame, fortune, and his "other half."
Amazon.com Sometimes grace and hope come in surprising packages. The title character of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, a would-be glam-rock star from East Germany, undergoes a botched gender-change operation in order to escape from the Soviet bloc, only to watch the Berlin Wall come down on TV after being abandoned in a trailer park in middle America. Hedwig gets involved with Tommy, an adolescent boy who steals her songs and becomes a stadium-filling musical act. Suffering from a broken heart and a lust for revenge, Hedwig follows Tommy's tour, playing with her band (the Angry Inch) at tacky theme restaurants. Into this simple storyline, writer-director-star John Cameron Mitchell packs an astonishing mix of sadness, yearning, humor, and kick-ass songs with a little Platonic philosophy tucked inside for good measure. A visually dazzling gem of a movie. --Bret Fetzer

GREAT movie! July 27, 2010 Kali P I won't be like everyone else on here and give the movie description as a review. I absolutely loved the movie, and anyone who likes musicals will like this. Well, almost anyone. Just as long as you are okay with homosexuality, you should be fine. :P
This movie really touched my heart with it's message of unconditional love.
Must see! :D <3
Very Beautiful and Inspirational!! An Amazing Movie!! July 13, 2010 E.Most (united states) This movie is truly amazing and an inspiration! I love each and every scene, and the beautiful music is so heart wrenching, and it touches you so deeply. You feel instantly how Hedwig feels, and you can't help but sing along and be really moved. It has definitely left a lasting impression on my mind and heart. I never felt more, or have been made to think like this movie has made me. I loved it so much and you will too! A definite must buy for those who consider themselves different, or are finding themselves and/or love a very memorable musical!
Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) July 5, 2010 Elisa (Italy) I saw this movie in a summer arena, among people who were not expecting to see what they really saw. Power of wrong media advertisement ;-) For me it was a nice surprise, even if I was sad for all the angry Hedwig has inside and the almost inability to let it go, performance after performance. I was also hoping, and trying to find the right man for him, the handsome American soldier was probably a good candidate at the beginning, but he was not right for the huge personality that was Hedwig, as it wasn't Tommy, that in the end is only a little boy. Probably Hedwig is too much for everyone, but it was good to see all that power on the big screen.
I love this film! May 13, 2010 This DVD was brand new and packaged appropriately... I watched this movie several times- before I went out and bought this DVD. Love the movie- so I can't complain.
