Girls Will Be Girls (film)
Girls Will Be Girls is a 2003 comedy film written and directed by Richard Day. Starring Jack Plotnick, Clinton Leupp and Jeffery Roberson as three actresses at various places in their careers, the film is a parody of Hollywoodrelated movies like Sunset Boulevard, All About Eve, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, Mommie Dearest and Valley of the Dolls.
Evies life is turned upsidedown by the arrival of a new roommate, Varla Simonds Jeffery Roberson, the voracious, starryeyed daughter of Evies rival, late actress Marla Simonds whose claims to fame included playing Chesty on Fill Her Up, the shortlived but widely acclaimed spinoff of C.P.O. Sharkey, and almost being cast as the lead in Asteroid before Evie captured that breakout role. Evie acts very competitive around Varla, especially as she recognizes the growing chemistry between the young upandcomer and her sweet, handsome and microscopically endowed son and ambulance chasing lawyer, Stevie Ron Mathews. When Varla snags a plum starring role in commercials for Bizzy Gal dinners, tensions and jealousies amongst the three women reach a boiling point and treachery soon rears its ugly head.In a 2008 interview, Leupp said that the origin of the film was a drag event benefit cohosted by Plotnick and himself. Leupp noted, we were such a hit that everyone said we should do something else together. Out of that we created Girls Will Be Girls. We decided we needed that third person the formula is Varla makes Evie crazy, Evie starts acting out and ends up hurting Coco. He went on to say that Day had originally written the movie as a situation comedy for Showtime, but the network had passed on it at the last minute, so it was made as a film hoping that the new gay networks would be interested. ........
