To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar is a 1995 American road comedy-drama film directed by Beeban Kidron and starring Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze, and John Leguizamo as three New York City drag queens who embark on a road trip. Its title refers to an iconic autographed photo of Julie Newmar they carry with them on their journey. Newmar also has a cameo appearance in the film as herself.


The film was released by Universal Pictures in the United States on September 8, 1995, and held the number-one spot at the North American box office for two weeks with a worldwide gross of $47.8 million against a $30 million budget. Critical response was mixed, with particular criticism towards the plot and its familiar elements, but the performances of Swayze, Snipes, and Leguizamo were lauded. It has since become a cult favorite amongst the LGBT community. At the 53rd Golden Globe Awards, Swayze was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and Leguizamo was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture.


World Golf Hall of Fame member Juan Antonio "Chi-Chi" Rodríguez sued Universal Pictures for defamation, especially involving the use of his name in the film, eventually settling on undisclosed terms
