DVD Reviews of How Do I Look
DVD Review: Amazing.
Summary: 5 Stars
This documentary about the NY Ballroom community brings all of the spectacular visions to entertain but also gives the people being filmed the opportunity to share their strength and wisdom with film viewers. Differing viewpoints on the ball experience, in the ny community and being POz, Gay. Appreciated hearing differing values, self concepts and generational experiences from gender variant women. A Lesbian wins House Mother of the Year for the first time and that was cool. History of Balls extra gives excellent historical information and cultural context. Loved it.

Description of How Do I Look
During the 10 years of the making of this documentary, How Do I Look captured the Harlem "Ball" traditions that originated in the 70s, which was historically an off shot from the Harlem "Drag" Balls from the 20s. Because of the loss of hundreds of members and leaders of the "Ball" community due to the HIV epidemic, How Do I Look was able to record an important aspect of the history and legacy that was still available. How Do I Look focused on the Icon and Legend Pepper Labeija, Willi Ninja, Tracy Africa, Kevin Omni, Jose Xtravaganza and Octavia St. Laurent, who took their talents outside the "Ball" community successfully and opened many doors for their community. The "children" are gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender African American and Hispanic members of the "Houses." Their goal is to be voted into the "Ballroom Hall of Fame" one day, the ultimate "Ballroom" achievement. Their highly competitive functions at "Balls," builds their self esteem and furthers their performance skills. By living on the edge, their natural artistic progression perfected their improvisational voguing, fashion and runway performance skills on the catwalk and is the reason why they have become such trend setters and inspirations worldwide.Bestsellers in DVD
