Workhorse Queen (2021) Slamdance 2021


 Loving portrait of Ed Popeil who performs as Kasha Davis.  Davis was a contestant on Ru Paul’s Drag Race and it sent her career into the stratosphere.

I have a really big problem with WORKHORSE QUEEN and that is it is so good I don’t have anything to say about it.  I mean this is good time with a great person. Its kind of like going to dinner with a great raconteur and just sitting there not really eating your meal because you are just so wrapped up in listening you forget to eat. While I did sit there and have popcorn, I was so focused on the film and Davis‘ ups and downs that I didn’t take any notes. I just let the film play out smiling the whole time.

While that isn’t much a person looking for a pull quote to hang their hat on about what the film is, it is an absolute rave because it means the film did everything it was supposed to which was inform, entertain and win over my heart. What a wonderful thing.

Highly recommended
