About this product

Product Information

John Cameron Mitchell is the creator of the off-Broadway hit HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH, which he and composer-lyricist Stephen Trask have transformed into a funny, dramatic, and curiously poignant self-described "post-punk neo-glam musical" film, with extra songs and a new instrumental score. Hedwig (played by Mitchell) was born as Hansel in East Berlin. In his twenties, Hansel agrees to undergo a sex change in order to marry a U.S. soldier (Maurice Dean Wint) and escape to America. Unfortunately, the procedure fails, and Hedwig is left with nothing but a sexless "angry inch" between her legs. After being abandoned in a Kansas trailer park by her husband, Hedwig decides to make the most of her situation: She develops a taste for outrageous wigs and costumes, forms a band, and becomes a singer. Hedwig soon meets and falls in love with 17-year-old Tommy (Michael Pitt), who also harbors rock star aspirations, and makes him her musical protégé. But Tommy is the one who ends up stealing the superstardom that Hedwig worked for, after stealing Hedwig's songs and claiming them as his own. In order to expose him as a fraud, she embarks on a tour of strip mall restaurants, telling her story to the audience while trailing Tommy on his own tour across America.

  • Gender Reassignment Gone Bad on Potential Rock Star

    Hedwig (John Cameron Mitchell), born a boy named Hansel, is raised in Communist Berlin by a single mother (Alberta Watson). Mom wants her son to reach beyond their impoverished family. Years later, Hansel is attracted to a handsome US soldier. The US soldier offers Hansel a richer life in the states, but not without a string attached! There's the catch: Hansel must have gender reassignment surgery to become a fully functional female who the soldier can marry. Hansel agrees. However, the surgery is botched, leaving the now-renamed Hedwig with an "angry inch." Poor betrayed Hansel is abandoned in a redneck trailer park, ironically on the very day the Berlin Wall is taken down. Hedwig learns to support he/rself by singing in crummy lounges and odd jobs. Hedwig meets a 16yo named Tommy ...

  • Great movie

    This movie is very entertainjng! It is funny and engaging. The songs all fit perfectly. They are not just songs for the sake of being a musical. The songs add to the story. The costumes are great as well.

  • One of our all-time favs

    My husband & I saw the Broadway musical on tour last year, then immediately went home to watch the film. Both are incredible, heartbreaking story, with lots of comedic elements, and wonderful sing-a-long songs.
