The Topp Twins: Untouchable Girls Showing
Saturday June 11, 1:30 pm
Fountain Theater New Mexico
Kicking off Pride week with a showing of the movie “The Topp Twins: Untouchable Girls. The Topps defy logic. "On paper," says their comedy-writer friend, Paul Horan, "yodelling lesbian twins don’t really work." But for the better part of three decades, the Topp sisters have been gleefully defying accepted wisdom about mainstream entertainment and homophobia, and have become crew-cut demi-goddesses in a country where the national character includes a warped sense of humor.
