Here's an obvious one to get the ball rolling...
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert ;D
Released 1994 - Starring: Hugo Weaving, Guy Pearce, Terence Stamp
Two drag queens and a transsexual land a cabaret gig in Alice Springs, out in the middle of the Australian desert.
This rollicking comedy follows their adventures through what is essentially cowboy country aboard their lavender motor home, dubbed "Priscilla."
It turns out that their Alice Springs contract was arranged by the ex-wife of Anthony (the transsexual now known as Bernadette and energetically portrayed by Stamp), and that they have a son.
Note also the appearance of Guy Pearce, destined for very different roles later in "L.A. Confidential" and "Memento." There's some action, a few tense moments, and lots of laughs in this offbeat film from Down Under.
Success is the ability to go from one failure to the next without any loss of enthusiasm!
