Glorious Mail is the story of a flamboyantly gay antique dealer, singer, and community theatre actor named Cesar Nutley Willingham IV. Cesar is causing a local and federal controversy with his new mailbox which was crafted for his 33rd birthday by his lesbian artist friend, Kymeleon Cockerham. The mailbox meets American Postal Service guidelines and was approved by Valerie Simpson, the local postmaster, who just happens to be Kymeleon’s life partner. The controversial mailbox is an abstract sculpture of a man bending over with his hands on his knees and his rear end facing the curb. When Bob, the redneck, homophobic mailman delivers the mail, he refuses to open the ass-door of the mailbox and instead, throws Cesar’s mail onto the ground near the box. Some Sinnavillains see the mailbox as pure art. Others see it as pure evil. This documentary humorously, yet compellingly, illustrates issues currently pertinent to our national debate over censorship and homosexual rights.
