Why I Made Trixie Mattel: Moving Parts | The Story Behind The Documentary
/ netflixuk
Drag queen Trixie Mattel deals with the bittersweet reality of success in this documentary that explores her rise to fame and subsequent music career.
I started the movie as a huge trixie fan and I left a huge Brian fan, what about amazing, talented human. It also made me download all trixie albums!! Love it
same herreeddt
@acnyc 11 nobody cares, bring your negativity elsewhere.
@acnyc 11 do you know what Katya was going through?
acnyc 11 If anything, Trixie was FAR more understanding and well adjusted than most people would be in that situation. I don’t know how you’re seeing it differently.
Sophia Hoiseth same!!!
You can tell how detached Trixie was from the project by the progression of her mentality after Katya left. I think she said, "I don't know if people want to see me without her" early in the documentary and after the tour and winning drag race she says something like, it was never about whether or not I could succeed without her. I think that subconscious transition from uncertainty and fear to the winners mentality of safety and security was very interesting. Especially since she realized Katya was important to her after she got over her fears and anxiety.
when she was putting on makeup and she randomly blurts out "i just wish me and katya were still friends" it broke my heart. you can see how this is something lingering in her mind through the whole thing. like she said in this video, when something so personal and tragic happens, its hard to not affect the other parts of your life
@@thequarrywoman1 yeah I'm glad they're still friends it's so sweet. Also their work together is something I can keep looking forward to! Im not a fan of drag race or drag queens at all but I really enjoy all the content those to put out.
@@awesomestuff92 omg same! i got into drag race but stopped bc I was honestly really dessappointed at a lot of those queens because they just dont seem genuine and have big egos but I randomly found a video of these two and immediately could see their truthfullness and it just hasnt changed since
@@thequarrywoman1 haha yeah I saw the season with Detox Alaska and the other one and never watched drag race again. They all started bullying eachother and as a gay guy having been bullied my whole life I was like gurrrrrrrl y'all should know better. I feel like a lot of drag queens watched Mean Girls and rooted for Regina George.
LOL "Winning Drag Race"
I loved how real it was, it really gives you a deeper understanding of who Trixie is
Leah:) was nvm
Also katya was struggling with addiction and mental health and she doesn’t get enough credit. That woman, barreled through it and came out the other side so much better. Katya deserves everything too. Even if she doesn’t talk about it that much. She doesn’t have to.
Drug addiction is no joke anyone that makes it out alive is nothing less than a miracle
I give Katya a lot of credit AND I give Trixie a lot of credit. Based on what Katya has said since, Trixie was extremely generous and understanding with her during and after.
I'd argue people give Katya way more credit than Trixie because ppl love to hate Trixie but just love Katya to death.
i really saw how much katya meant to trixie in this documentary, it was heartbreaking. when she said 'out of all the people that could hate me, i hate that it's that person' i cried ;_;. im so happy they patched it up
the hardest working biological woman on the planet! trixie is genuinely such an inspiration and i'm so glad her doco is getting the love and respect it deserves
I love the biological woman comments!
The documentary is absolutely beautiful. It's a rollercoaster of emotions, but it's so beautifully honest. It really doesn't sugarcoat anything, nor linger too long on anything which makes it feel a lot like Trixie's comedy while also showing the Trixie Mattel that people rarely get to see. I've never rewatched a documentary before, but I've watched Trixie Mattel: Moving Parts so many times already, even tho I think it's an at times very difficult film to watch.
Couldn't finish it the first time as I really wasn't mentally prepared to deal with it but once I was I bawled I laughed it was truly brilliant ❤️❤️
I was a huge Trixie fan before the movie but I refused to watch it illegally. First time in my life 😂
I finally got the chance when it was released to Netflix Spain at the beginning of the lockdown and it was such a powerful documentary. It’s ugly and raw and real which was hard to watch but also very eye opening and not even just in the drag side of things.
I loved every second.
Gio T literally me. The day it came out on Dutch Netflix I immediately watched it and it was amazing
I bought it on Vimeo for the same reason, long before. Was a bit bummed when it came out on Netflix, to be honest, 😂 but it was money well spent. It was the fruit of the hard work Trixie, David and everyone involved put in. And the result is a beautifully raw and strong portrayal of the hustle that is drag.
I agree xxx
SAME it was so painful to wait but I dont regret it at all. I'm glad I own it on google play I love rewatching it whenever!
Same! I actually paid!
Bleeping out Roxxxy Andrews first name like she isn’t the only Andrews 😭😂
oh it isn't a bleep, I just spoke over her. It's absolutely Roxxxy
Netflix UK & Ireland GUTTED 😭
💀💀💀
@@stillwatchingnetflix You are here to make it clear.
celestisima_ underrated comment
I suffer from depression, I deep one. One night, a few weeks ago, I was considering to end my own life, and I don´t know what came to me but I ended up watching Moving Parts in the midle of the night, the Katya moment stroke me and whenever Trixie was singing moved me. And well, here I am still.
Hope you're here still.
I know it's been 11 months but hey ! How are you doing ? I hope you're doing better
You matter Please remember that and although I may be far away in Scotland and a stranger you matter to me ❤
You're beautiful. You're loved. You are still here for a reason. ❤
❤ It’s three years later… I hope you’re still here on this planet ❤ Sometimes it’s something so seemingly small or unimportant that somehow sticks with us & creates change within us if even for a short time. I’m a stranger on the internet but I do truly hope you’re still a part of this world ❤ You’re loved, you matter, you ARE here for a reason ❤
we stan brian..
from a small little kid who got abused by a stepfather and then she became strong and she's achieving her dreams sincethen.. she even used the name trixie of which her father always calls her when she sees brian..brian left and her mother was like ORAYT BYE.. sometimes it hurts for mom to love their Partners than child 🤕
I don't know if I'd say Brian's mother loved his stepfather more than him (Brian). Like he said in the documentary, abuse happens so slowly and deeply, you don't realize it happens. She may have needed her husband for financial support. She was probably stuck. It's a very sad situation.
Not sometimes, it always hurts. No man is more important than your child, they are all garbage and your child is gold and if you don't find a partner who also sees the shine in your child you chuck him/her back in the trash.
I know that people who are in an abusive relationship have a very hard time leaving, been there done that. I threw away my entire life to protect my child. I don't judge women who for having a hard time with it, it can be dangerous. But if you leave at that first red flag you don't have to worry about it.
I recommend this documentary for everybody. Trixie’s so strong and kind and I have no choice but stan. I’m so happy for Katya too, she deserves the world and I’m so glad things are so much better now. Love you Trixie 🥰
Gio Monteiro is it available on US Netflix?
Panz Animations yes!!
Menina tu tá em tudo eu tô chocada ksksdmdm
I am so ready for the Katya documentary.
Petition for a Katya Doc called *Zamolodchikova, But your dad just calls her Katya*
Such a real and honest film. I love Trixie but I’m really happy everyone got to know Brian a bit more through this. We all start as fans of Trixie because she’s funny and confident but we (at least in my opinion) tend to stick around because of the pieces of Brian that come through (the vulnerability and truth in the music, for one). I’m glad everyone else is able to get a glimpse of that now.
Agree but want to add two cents - that it's not only Trixie that's funny, it's Brian too. I mean I saw videos of him as Brian and he's still witty and hillarious so I'm trying to say it's not just his character/stage persona)
I dragged a friend to watch this in London who’d never really watched drag race and had no idea who Trixie or anyone was and she absolutely loved it. I don’t think you have to know anything about it to still enjoy it. It explores so many different things, there’s something for everyone.
Good point!
I love this doc. Is so pure and real
The amount of care Trixie have towards Katya is unbelievable.
I cried a lot during this movie....
Definitely worth watching not only one time but multiple times
I'm so proud of Trixie and Katya.
Plowiec Irena
When Katya was in rehab and Trixie was getting texts off her - Katya was clearly taking her anger out on her friend - that was heartbreaking.
I am glad it worked out for them both.
@@kathleech8044 I know... I was shocked
I couldn't believe it what just happened :/
Or the part when Trixie undressed Christmas tree and talked about Katya and she left the room and cried...
Or even when Trixie said that she didn't care about career when she's not with Katya... she prefer career with her than on her own
This is true friendship
Plowiec Irena
It is. Trixies love for Katya is pure.
I was so surprised because I honestly didn't know they were that close. Katya's poem for her in the beggining with the "i'll keep it foxy at the Troxy without oxy because 2 in 1 is better than none" literally saying she was gonna hold her own in her one woman show and not resort to drugs because she knew she had Trixie was so deep and emotional, specially considering all that unfolded later..
@@thequarrywoman1 they are so close. They are like a old married couple literally. Tracy in every video/interview always talk about Katya. Katya the same thing...
Trixie said that Katya is her trophy from drag race and I cried at this part 😭
I forced my mom to watch the documentary with me and by the end her opinion was completely changed and she talked about how much she respected him. That was a big deal and I love it
Only criticism of the whole documentary was that they didn’t play I Know You All Over Again, that’s what made me fall in love which Trixie
I love that song, reminds me of a period in my life & makes me cry.
YES it’s such a beautiful song
This movie just deepened my appreciation for not only Trixie, but Brian. All of the stuff about her trauma in the home spoke to me on such a deep level, because I have been through a similar situation. When she said something along the lines of “I thought it was normal to go home everyday and want to die” immediately made me sob to the point of almost having to stop the movie. I’ve never heard it put into words that well and it made me feel like I wasn’t alone in the world. So thanks to all those involved, *especially* Brian for allowing such deep parts of his life be shared with us. ❤️❤️
The friendship between Katya and Trixie is beautiful
Last time I was this early, Brian still worked at the MAC store.
Love you, Trixie.
If you ever need to cry, watch moving parts. If you ever need to laugh, watch moving parts.
One of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen.
Trixie and David look so cute together ❤️❤️🥰
It's hauntingly real, sometimes it's uncomfortable. But I guess that was the point. For all the glitz and glamour fantasy that drag queens give us, this is one piece of countless evidences that they are, in fact, essentially, just human. It's a good documentary.
this documentary is SUCH an incredible documentary i deeply recommend it to anybody I know who may be interested in learning more about trixie and who she actually is as a person. It gave me such a deeper understanding of her than just seeing her performance from the outside and really made me appreciate all the work she puts into her drag. I think it should be on anyone and everyone's watch list, and is a fantastic insight into what drag really is and friendships within a workspace and how those breaks can affect you and change you as a person. If you haven't seen it already please go watch it!!
that part Trixie sings Moving Parts right after she got “the text” from Brian was just heartbreaking. 6:06
I’ve been enamoured with Trixie for years, but this doc introduced me to Brian and all that he is behind the scenes of a truly quirky, glamorous queen. Trixie is so incredibly well rounded, motivated, driven and is a massive success with every single thing she has done. I bought “Moving Parts” the second it came out years ago. I’ve never regretted that decision since. I love you Tracy Martell. 💖
Not being bias to trixie, but this documentary is actually really good. And it made me fall in love with trixie in a deeper level.
I didn’t know anything about Trixie or RPDR before watching this documentary and now I am such a huge fan of all things drag- the hard work that goes into this form of entertainment juxtaposed with the seeming effortlessness of the performance - mad respect to Trixie et al. And then there’s all the wonderful queens I get to enjoy now all because I watched this - podcasts i get to listen to etc. so good! So grateful. And it doesn’t hurt that Trixie and Katya are both just such genuinely likeable people as Brian and Brian.
Loved his Unhhhh comedy before watching the doc but wanted to just hug and thank him for his loyalty to his friends and being grounded enough to show a vulnerable side. He's breaking alot of boundaries and he is only at the start of it. I'll be cheering & supporting him all the way.
I loved how emotional and raw this film was. I wish I could say I’ve watched it hundreds of times but I’ve only watched it twice because it is such a beautiful but heartbreaking thing to watch
This channel giving me more quality content I need in the time of quarantine. I loved this documentary and it was awesome learning more about it!
we do what we do
I loved it! and I saw it back in December having like 10% out of a 100 of background knowledge on Trixie's career and drag in general. Mind you, seeing a Barbie like figure on screen, I was expecting it to be all pastels, fun and games and 15 minutes in I'm already like "this is... sad 🙁" haha it was very good, I say watch it if you can.
Oh and the music fantastic! All in all Brian is a great singer/songwriter ❤️
It was so different from what I expected, and honestly I'm so glad it was. Never laughed and cried so much at a single piece of work like this.
I loved it. It was like watching the reality of reality stars x
I love Trixie; her humour, music and all the work she puts into anything she does. She really is one of the most hardworking people and we gotta appreciate it more!
I discovered Trixie bc of the documentary. I love documentaries so I was just looking for something to watch. It came out at a time when all of us need some escapism.
I'm really proud of Trixie for making this and of everyone that directed and produced it. She's making things that no other drag queen has before and it has a huge impact on people right now. I love her and I love this documentary. Keep going, Trixie.
wait, is trixie's nose straight?
only straight thing about her. (maybe thats why its so curved all the time)
I read this in Kimchi's voice
No honey
@@SHIkun9000 ... not to mention being born in wisconsin
It's A Christmas Miracle
It broke my heart seeing trixie and katya fighting but I'm glad they were able to work through it. It also gave trixie a chance to really develop her own identity which is so important. Great film and I love Trixie ❤
Just watched today. I loved it. I was amazed at how much hard work goes in to being "Trixie" and how when life is happening to us, we have to keep going. Katya had the opportunity to stop and get help, which was clearly needed and God bless her, but what about those of us that are so affected by the poison of addiction, but aren't afforded an opportunity to stop. This really struck a nerve with me and Trixie will forever be endearing to me because she is a fighter and survivor and she kept going.
i loved this movie, definitely helped me understand better what happens behind the cameras and get to know trixie and brian better
I am so shockingly late to discover this & am thoroughly disappointed that it didn't pop up when I searched it on Netflix
still not there :(
I love when David is talking Trixie is so still, except her blinking. If you knew nothing about her, and stumbled onto this video, she almost looks animatronic.
tracy- netflix ain't free
rich from netflix- well, it is for a lot of people, let's be honest...
Netflix didn’t do the doc I heard people say they saw it at a convention or something first
@@shelbygarcia8760 a film festival, is where indie films get shown hoping a distributor Will pick up the film, which in this case was Netflix although it was already on some platforms I think
facts are facts
i dont get this... why and how is it free for a lot of ppl

I'm a straight woman who has fallen head over heels for Trixie! In drag and out!

this movie is so beautiful, and so honest, thank you so much for making this! I never knew I could love and appreciate you more than I ever did before watching this. I'm so happy to see you get all the success you deserve and the way you showcase your friendship with katya in the movie just made me love you guys even more, it's really such a beautiful and pure friendship.
So that’s the boyfriend, finally
The producer?
@@neljonhporia yep
I have watched Moving Parts 3 times and listen to Trixie's music daily. I am such a genuine fan of the heart and hard work of a daily grind (among the hardest times a person can experience) of any individual. On top of all of this there is an person making beautiful honest folk music and also puts themselves out there for humor and self deprecation.
I actually only just watched this film today and I've never been so genuinely moved by a documentary. I haven't been a drag fan for that long but after watching season 7 I became a huge fan of Trixie and after seeing this it just made me love her even more
Everything about this film is so beautiful. Not only Trixie, of course, but the cinematography...
Such a good, honest movie. The fact that its core dramas between Trixie and Katya have resolved so beautifully just makes it better.
honestly am i the only one who was left begging for a follow up or something more? i know they had that summary at the end but like hhghgh i feel like i want to see how things have progressed from there, now that trixie has grown into who she is today and katya is able to look back on everything that happened in retrospective. it was so raw and taught me so much but damn i want to see more!!
Trixie's biggest competition: Dakota Fanning.
She mentions her so much😆
This nearly broke my heart. And it made me really fall in love with Brian. His ability to forgive and believing in his best friend is exemplary and admirable.
One of the best and most heartwarming and truthful documentaries I’ve seen in a long time. I love Trixie...loved seeing Brian more...he’s so good to his family even after we know a bit of his heartbreaking childhood. This is a must watch for all. ❤️
I loved this because even though it’s a different lifestyle than most of ours it’s still extremely relatable and pulls on several heart strings. It made me love Trixie more but respect Brian and his compassion a whole lot. I’m glad they ended up working things out
Watching this last night, was so raw and sad. Like to show people queens, musicians, artists, and even celebrities rougher, raw and behind the scene side isn’t as glamorous as the other side of the screen.
I absolutely loved this movie, I cried 3 times throughout! The music, just everything about it is amazing!💕💖💕
I've watched it about 20 times & I still find it moving. Can't wait to see Trixie in July in the UK 🤞🤞🤞
This movie will always be so special to me. I flew from Amsterdam to London to see it on the big screen. It was my first time there and my first time traveling alone. Heavy Crown alone gives me all the good bumps, such a great movie!💕 Today would have been the first time I got to see Trixie perform live but.. yk.. Oh well this was great too. Ty Netflix 😇
wish it was still on netflix
I liked Trixie before her documentary. Watching it made me fall in love with her. She's amazing.
Netflix is throwing out some iconic replies here
I love their relationship and I just love every part of Trixie/Brian
The most shocking thing this video: Trixie has a blue wall in her house! 😱 But truly Trixie/Brian is an incredibly talented person. The documentary is bloody brilliant and so are Trixie’s albums! (now available on iTunes!😉)
@TrixieMattel did something nobody knew we needed. Brian and his team grounded the fabulous and fantastic world of Drag, highlighting the artist behind the art.
I'm so proud of you and this production Trixie!! Congrats! I am humbled truly by how much hard work you put into your character and how Trixie really is an extension of your soul that you share. Thank you.
OMG I LIVE AND BREATHE FOR BRIAN AND TRIXIE MATTEL✊💞💖
can yall please put it back on Netflix..?
I’m in the Uk and it’s not on Netflix here 😢
Love u Trixie and David. Y’all deserve every good thing that happens to you. You and katya inspire me so much. And even when I dread going to work because my hands are shaking from anxiety and whatever. I watch uhhnn and it makes life a little more bearable. Anyway. Y’all are sweet and lovey and everything that makes this world a little bit better
I've watched this doc so many times--it's what introduced me to Trixie and Katya--it's just so well-done and documents such an interesting time in Trixie's career and in her friendship/partnership with Katya. I think what makes it something that people return to again and again is that Trixie/Brian just seems like a plain good person. She lets us see her vulnerabilities, but also just how thoughtful she is and how much she cares. Watching her balance her frustration/fear for her career over the whole Katya situation with the real care and concern she feels for her friend's wellbeing says all you need to know about Trixie/Brian as a person. Also, the music is legit good.
I've watched Moving Parts 5+ times. It's so good.
just watched it...so goood! really paints the story of how drag is hard and not as glamorous as the queens do their best to present it as. They give it their everything and seem drained.
I took a train to a different city to see this film at the cinema
I started the film expecting it to be quite happy go lucky and left literally crying. It’s an amazing documentary and both Trixie, David and Nick should all be so proud of it 💝
im in NZ on a working holiday visa. i'm a professional chef. theres no work right now and I cant receive benefits or unemployment as I'm not a NZ citizen. The second week of quarantine my partner whom I thought i was going to be with forever, ended our relationship. I found a temp job as an essential factory worker where i do shifts from 230 in the morning until 230 at night for minimum wage. Im a mess, but everyday I just have to try to deal with my life falling apart and go to work with this huge team of people and act like everything is fine because frankly what other choice do I have. this interview really hit me hard, but it also made me feel less alone. that i'm not the only one who is dealing with shit, but still just has to put the big girl panties on and get to work because thats how you survive.
Trixie/Brian is one of the MOST talented human beings on the planet on period sis.
loved the documentary💕 i love trixie and so seeing this “new” side to her made me love her even more!
This documentary is so inspiring and I now I admire Trixie even more than I did before. I mean, even in the biggest time of uncertainty she keeps going on and focuses on the things she loves the most. I was also impressed by the fact that she keeps her childhood story to herself. It's important to tell this stories in order to help people who are going through hardships, but I respect her right to privacy and also the fact that she refuses to build her own narrative based on that, while other people exploit their trauma to draw sympathy or justify their acts (I said what I said).
Yassssssss Trixie!!!!!! 💕
I have UA-cam premium so I get to watch/listen to stuff and play around on my phone and so I don’t usually watch stuff on Netflix cause I can’t do that. This was such a powerful documentary. I’m going to watch it again as I’ve been binge watching trixie, katya and Trixie and Katya together. I feel like I know their personalities more. Also I’m in recovery (26 years) and I’ve been the wife of someone who relapsed (chronically unfortunately ans he’s now my ex husband) and the wife of someone with longer term sobriety. I relate to you both, just as human beings. I honestly watch Uhhhh all of your guys individual content and all content together and I watch Pit stop, but I don’t actually watch drag race.
Trixie Matrell is my favorite queen of all time....
Amazing Documentary and Great Music. Trixie and Katya glad you're back to being friends. You're awesome together.
Trixie and Katya 😸😹💕Best friends forever!
Loved it! It was so real and honest.
Netflix UK & Ireland has the best content. Thanks for this!
I love you so much Brian. You've brought so much light and happiness into my life when I never thought I'd be happy again. I can't thank you enough, there's no words to explain it. I love you x100000000. ❤️
I’m watching this right now and just realized again that right now I was supposed to watch her live in amsterdam😢😢
I was able to watch the Doc this past weekend, and it wasn't what I thought it was going to be, but really appreciate the realness and vulnerability we get.
I love the love Netflix has for drag and drag culture.
The most screentime David's gotten. Tracy is SHAKING.
I love you Trixie , you are human and it's okay to cry off your make up.
Tracy is such a great songwriter & performer in general. Also Brian and David are so cute together
Trixie Mattel is the most iconic queen to come from Drag Race. The most successful and most forward thinking.
Ok first of all where does Trixie shop ? This Tiffany blue sweater is giving me life. I want it.
Petition for Netflix to put Moving Parts back on!!!🤧
The doc was amazing..A must watch,I looooooooved it 💚💚
So jealous of that spice girls t shirt!!!!!
I loved this documentary. Absolutely cried
