You'd like to think the Catholic Church would protect actual live children as much as they protect fetuses.

It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you truly are.

These four extremely funny women have that courage. The are out and proud and hilarious as they take on the Catholic Church, politics, sex, aging, men and women, and lesbianism.

But, they also talk about their lives, growing up, coming out to family, airport security, the gay and lesbian movement, and many other things.

If you love to laugh and are interested in another part of America's social history, this is one documentary that is not to be missed.

It'll make you want to head to your local gay comedy club tonight!

Pretty Funny Women
TequilaMockingbird6327 December 2005
These women are funny. The sixty minute documentary (a first for director Andrea Meyerson) gives us hilarious performance footage blended with behind-the-scenes interviews with comedians Kate Clinton, Karen Williams, Marga Gomez and Suzanne Westenhoefer. They talk about everything from politics, girlfriends, ex-girlfriends, religion, Christmas presents, first jobs, aging, Martha Stewart and of course sex. Laughing Matters will remind everyone why it is so important to laugh and so important to be who you are. Stand-up is best served live with a couple a beers and the energy of the audience laughter but the intelligent and humorous interviews with these four women made it worth the watch. 8 out of 10 stars.
