CGiii Comment

The early life and times of Quentin Crisp - before the silly stuff...that over-reaching ego that fame created. He did say some mighty stupid things...thankfully, this film chronicles his foppish, entertaining days.

John Hurt is simply brilliant.

Enchanting...in almost every way.


Trailer...
