Synopsis

In BAM BAM AND CELESTE, Celeste (Margaret Cho) and Bam Bam (Bruce Daniels) are best friends still stuck in the white bread Midwest hometown where they grew up. Celeste lives at home with her out-of-touch Mommy (also played by Cho) and has retained her outcast status since high school. She and Bam Bam are free-spirited rejects in a town where looking or dressing differently is perpetually uncool. Shunned on a good day and taunted on a bad one, the only thing Bam Bam and Celeste have is each other. They both feel life is passing them by. After seeing an ad for a contestant search for TRADING FACES, a reality makeover show in N.Y., they decide, like so many misfits before them, to follow their dreams to New York City.

Their yellow brick road to the Big Apple is strewn with potential disasters and comical crises, as they encounter thugs, survivalists, racists and a "lesbian Lone Ranger," played with ballsy charm by Jane
Lynch (40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN, BEST IN SHOW) and other roadside distractions before finally reaching The City. They arrive, only to find their hometown high-school nemeses, now the style dictators of the
world-famous Salon Mirage, sitting in judgment at TRADING FACES. Helped by the show's booking assistant, played with delight by Alan Cumming, and an assist from Celeste's Mommy, the two friends survive a potential break-up, sabotage from without and doubts from within, and a fashion-challenged wardrobe, to discover that true beauty lies within.

BAM BAM AND CELESTE
Margaret Cho's Statement

"The story of BAM BAM & CELESTE begins with the script. I wanted to write an earnest tribute to films like CARRIE, WELCOME TO THE DOLLHOUSE and MURIEL'S WEDDING. I had a classically troubled adolescence and I thought it would be fun to unleash all of my demons and add my own contribution to the cinema of loneliness. Fortunately, I was never lonely on my own, and the character Bam Bam, sweetly played by Bruce Daniels, was a love letter to all the wonderful gay boys out there who have made life so much easier for odd girls like me.

"Writing the script was pretty easy. I had a first draft in a weekend. It took two years to finally raise the money to make the film. Not that I am complaining, since I know now that many films take even longer to
get off the ground, but coming from the world of standup comedy, live shows and endless touring, where gratification is instantaneous, it took a little more time to adjust. The first day we showed up to the set, I couldn't believe we were actually doing it. Jane Lynch, who plays my erstwhile lesbian lover 'Darlene' was incredibly dashing and elegant, just as I had written her, and then so much more.

"One of the beautiful discoveries of making this film was seeing actors take the words I had written and magically transform them into people. It is sorcery, what good actors can do. They can conjure up these
unforgettable, awe-inspiring, gorgeous, terrifying entities from mere ideas, words scattered on a page. I had moments where I was so bowled over by their performances that I forgot we were making a film. Bruce, Elaine, Alan, John, Butch, Kathy - everyone really made the movie for me.

"Lorene Machado and I had worked together for many years making my concert films, and it was such a comfort to have her at the helm because I knew that whatever happened, she would understand what I wanted in the scene and she would do everything to make sure she got it. I had never really gotten used to the whole process of collaboration, but Lorene made it completely effortless. Even though the hours were long and the shooting schedule impossible and unrelenting, especially for me playing two characters and being combination producer/investor/punching bag for everyone else, every second was filled with excited anticipation. Here was a world that I created, from faded bits of memory, scraps of old friends and enemies, all these discordant elements of my past and my imagined future, and it was becoming real, brought to life by some extraordinary people. I loved making this film, and I can't wait to do the next one."

BAM BAM AND CELESTE
Lorene Machado's Statement

"I was at LAX when I read Margaret's first draft of BAM BAM AND CELESTE, and I laughed out loud like I was the only fool in the airport. I knew I was going to be involved with the film in some capacity, but I was
completely blown away when Margaret asked me to direct it.

"As films go, this one was no cakewalk. We had funding mishaps that forced us to shut down production 10 days before the first day of principal photography. We were shooting during the worst rainfall that Los Angeles had seen in 100 years - insert the typical 'making of indie film' adventures here, because they all applied. However, as a first time narrative director, I don't know how I could have gotten luckier. The cast is filled with many of my personal heroes, and some old and new friends, who came to the set ready to rock every minute. The producers, the DP (Matt Clark), and the rest of the crew were extremely talented, committed and engaged. I had a clear path every day to focus on my job.

"Eva Kolodner told me years ago that one of the best things that can happen to a film is that it doesn't get funded right away, because it forces the filmmakers to hone the story and develop the material. I distinctly remember thinking, "Great point. But screw that, I'd rather not wait." Now I gotta give it up to Eva, because she was right. While Margaret and I spent the next two years making two concert films and a documentary, we also used that time to discuss, research, riff, and dream. When the time came to actually make BAM BAM AND CELESTE, we had a clear direction. We knew that we wanted to play it real and let the
humor rise organically from the words, situations and performances. I knew that this film was already pulsing through my veins when we hit pre-production, because the decisions came instinctively.

"People often ask me how Margaret and I started working together, and if it had anything to do with the fact that we're both, ok, hold on to your hats here -- Asian women. Actually, that's probably how we first really
noticed each other, because when we met 14 years ago (hard to believe, weird to even write), it was a little bit freakish to have two Asian women on a set where no one was doing kung fu. But I think it's deeper
than that. We both have these weird senses of humor and offbeat sensibilities, and somehow they buzz and create a great energy.

"The set of BAM BAM AND CELESTE had a great energy. It was fun, spontaneous, creative, a little naughty, and really really hard work. We all laughed a lot. We laughed until our stomachs hurt and we couldn't breathe. Thankfully, the heart and the humor that laced Margaret's first draft, I believe, is still intact. I'm pleased and thrilled to send BAM BAM AND CELESTE road-tripping into the world. I hope the laughter
continues."

BAM BAM AND CELESTE
About the Cast

Margaret Cho - Celeste and Mommy

Comedian and writer Margaret Cho has been performing for audiences since she was sixteen. In the past five years she's launched four sold-out national tours and turned each into a concert film.

In 1999, she chronicled her experience on the ill-fated sitcom ALL AMERICAN GIRL in an off-Broadway one-woman show called I'M THE ONE THAT I WANT. The show was extremely well received, toured the U.S, and was made into a concert film and a best-selling book of the same name. The film garnered incredible reviews and broke the record for the most money grossed per print in movie history. In 2001, after the success of her
first show, Cho launched NOTORIOUS C.H.O., a smash-hit 37-city national tour that culminated in a sold-out concert at Carnegie Hall. Cho's 2003 REVOLUTION tour grossed $4.4M and was heralded as, "Her strongest show yet!" by the Chicago Sun Times. The REVOLUTION CD was nominated for a Grammy for best comedy album of the year in 2003, and the concert film premiered on the Sundance channel in early 2004. The DVD sold 100,000 units within the first 2 months of release.

In 2004, Cho took her politically charged STATE OF EMERGENCY tour through the swing states of the Presidential election. Lauded as "Murderously funny!" by the New York Times, STATE OF EMERGENCY
eventually evolved into Margaret's fourth national show, ASSASSIN. Her most political and topical work to date, ASSASSIN toured the US, Canada and Australia and was filmed at the Warner Theatre in Washington D.C. The concert film premiered in select theatres and on the gay and lesbian premium channel Here! TV in late 2005. It was recently released on CD by Nettwerk records and on DVD by Koch Entertainment. Her second book, I Have Chosen to Stay and Fight, was released by Riverhead Books, a division of Penguin Group (USA) in October of 2005, and has been praised as "Raw. Blunt. Passionate. Empathetic, yet no-holds-barred," by the Star-Telegram.

Always one to incorporate activism in her work, Cho recently received the First Amendment Award from the ACLU of Southern California. She has also been honored by the National Organization for Women (NOW), GLAAD, Lambda Legal, the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF) and the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF) for making a significant difference in promoting equal rights for all, regardless of race, sexual orientation or gender identity.

BAM BAM AND CELESTE is her first narrative feature.

Bruce Daniels - Bam Bam

Bruce Daniels is an actor and comedian. Dubbed "the main fag behind America's number one hag" by OUT MAGAZINE, Daniels started performing stand-up after meeting comedian Margaret Cho on the set of the
never-released CAN'T STOP DANCING, in which they played spandex-clad lovers. It was Cho who first encouraged him to give stand-up a try and the two have been inseparable partners in comedy ever since. In the past three years, Daniels has opened for Cho on her successful REVOLUTION, STATE OF EMERGENCY, and ASSASSIN tours. His performance, described as "hilariously personal" and "comedy meets story-telling" by GAY WIRED, was captured in the concert films of REVOLUTION and ASSASSIN, now available on DVD. Blending the personal and the political with deadpan ease puts Daniels in the rare class of comedians able to deliver laughs with social relevance.
