It's Pat
It's Pat is a 1994 American slapstick comedy film directed by Adam Bernstein and starring Julia Sweeney, Dave Foley, Charles Rocket, and Kathy Griffin. The film was based on the Saturday Night Live (SNL) character Pat, created by Sweeney, an androgynous misfit whose gender is never revealed. Foley plays Pat's partner Chris, and Rocket, another SNL alumnus, plays Pat's neighbor Kyle.
Plot
Pat Riley is a chubby, whiny, and obnoxious job-hopper of indeterminate gender who is searching for a steady foundation in life. Pat falls in love with Chris (whose gender is also unrevealed to the audience) and the two get engaged. Meanwhile, Pat's neighbor Kyle develops an unhealthy obsession with identifying Pat's gender and begins stalking them. He sends a tape of Pat performing karaoke to a television show called America's Creepiest People, bringing them to the attention of the band Ween, who feature Pat in one of their performances, playing the sousaphone. Pat and Chris break up when Pat learns that Ween intended only to use them for one gig.
