KINKY BOOTS
UK, 2005, 106 MIN
DIRECTED BY JULIAN JARROLD
REGIONAL PREMIERE
Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton) thinks he can finally escape from the dead-end industrial town of Northampton, but the sudden death of his father leaves him with the family’s shoe business. Now stuck with the failing factory, facing imminent bankruptcy, layoffs, and many difficult choices, Charlie needs a miracle. Enter Lola (Chiwetel Ejiofor, Dirty Pretty Things), a feisty female impersonator with teetering high heels and a keen business sense. Their unlikely partnership takes Price & Sons Shoes from the struggling manufacturer of humdrum loafers to the red-hot producer of sexy, spike-heeled boots. Together, Charlie and Lola transform the hearts, minds, and futures of the factory workers, the fashion magnates in Milan, and each other. Inspired by a true story, KINKY BOOTS marks the triumphant feature film directorial debut of Emmy-nominated Julian Jarrold (Great Expectations). With its uplifting message, brassy humor, and hilarious performances, this film is sure to leave people laughing in their boots, kinky or not.
