We're throwing it back to 1996's The Birdcage - a film about a duo named Armand (Robin Williams) and Albert (Nathan Lane), their trendy Miami nightclub, and how their sense of paradise is rattled when Armand's son decides to marry the daughter of one Senator Keele (Gene Hackman). We discuss the riskiness of The Birdcage for its time, its on-brand flashiness, and its over-the-top humor that make it such a joy to watch, and rewatch, again and again.
