The film embodies a special look at religious fanaticism and anti-gay bigotry in Texas by the Sisters Latrell, Lavonda and Aunt Cisse. Each of these decided to stop this intolerance by protesting against an 'anti-equality grouping' aimed at preventing any sexual marriage in the same district. It's a special look at these colorful characters from 'Sordid's Previous Life' who decide a wedding that seems to change course.
There's something touching about Shores' hope that a town like Winters can change colors like the streaks of eye shadow that cake his characters' faces, but his impulse toward Southern-fried cartoonishness cheapens and undermines it.
The film is undeniably energetic, with a lot of good lines written by Shores, but it descends into obvious preachiness, and from this view, the unrelenting wackiness becomes overwhelming.
