Plot: In this satire, parents who are worried that their children might not be walking the straight and narrow path discover a rehabilitation camp designed to curb alternative lifestyles. Megan (Natasha Lyonne), a high school student and member of the cheerleading squad, seems like an ordinary enough teenage girl, but her habit of honestly expressing herself and lack of romantic enthusiasm for her boyfriend convince her very repressed parents, Peter (Bud Cort) and Nancy (Mink Stole), that Megan is becoming a lesbian. So Megan is shipped off to True Directions, a camp for gay and gay-leaning teens, where Mary Brown (Cathy Moriarty) attempts to deprogram kids with homosexual tendencies. The first step in the process is to get each teen to admit to their homosexuality, which Megan is loath to do, since she doesn't believe she's a lesbian -- or at least she didn't think so before she met her new friend Graham (Clea DuVall), who seems quite sure that she likes girls. Meanwhile, Mary's son Rock (Eddie Cibrian) may be exempt from the camp's activities, but he turns more than a few heads among True Directions' male inmates. Noted female impersonator RuPaul appears as a camp guide, and Julie Delpy has a cameo as a lipstick lesbian. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

This is a cutesy, fun movie about figuring out how to cure being gay. With the conclusion, you can't haha It's entertaining and amazing! Clea DuVall is my favorite! RuPaul is in this as a man. I highly recommend watching this!

SCARY!!!
Added 6/14/2009

I bought this film because of all the good reviews it received on here. But you know what, I have to say this is the most disturbing film I've ever seen in my life. I was looking for a cute film showing homosexuality in a positive light, but what I got instead was a creepy film that left me wondering if it was filled with subliminal messages. Just the way color was used throughout the film bothered me. All in all, I watched it once, then promptly took it outside to the dumpster so I'd never have to see it again. I gave it a one star rating because they wouldn't let me give it any less, but if I had the choice it would get nothing more than a negative 10. I would never ever suggest this movie to anyone and I think it could possibly be used as a torture device.

A must have for all LGBT film collections

This is one of the best self discovery / coming out movies ever made. It is also the funniest appealing to both men and women. The story centers around a young woman's self discovery and dealing with the repercussions it causes in her life. This film has no real "dirty parts" but it dose star Rupaul as a male teacher at a private school teaching Queer kids to act Straight. I feel it deserves a place in every LGBT film collection.
