Reuniting two legends, The Birdcage is Elaine May's brilliant screenplay based on the French comedy La Cage aux Folles directed by Mike Nichols. Following the joys and tribulations of two sets of mis-matched in-laws as their children of a great American institution: the family. Starring Robin Williams, Gene Hackman, Nathan Lane, and Dianne Wiest, The Birdcage, as Nichols has said, "looks at the things that people who love their family will do for them, and the ways in which families are tied together through thick and thin."
A Writers Guild Award nominee for Best Screenplay, here is the complete script and special section "Talking with Nichols," with the director's comments on actors, directing, comedy, collaborations and more; commentaries on the production by Robin Williams, Nathan Lane and others involved in the film, stills, and complete cast and crew credits.
