Sparkle is not at its heart a lame film, but if you
know the work of Neil Hunter and Tom Hunsinger
(Lawless Heart, Boyfriends), or if you like watching a
good film with a queer sensibility, then you'll love
it. 22-year-old Liverpudlian Sam (Shaun Evans, who
played a lame character in Teachers) comes down to
London with his cabaret-singing dotty mother to change
his life for the better. Serving drinks at a party, he
hooks up with Sheila, a powerful PR boss in a pair of
high-heeled boots (played by the fabulous Stockard
Channing, need we say more). But when he also begins
an affair with a younger woman, life begins to get
just a little complicated.
