I Want What I Want

another must watch movie
this is a must watch movie
I was really young when I first saw this movie on HBO.
I was glad to finally buy the tape
it is really powerful I can relate to it even though I am happy with who i am.
if you have ever felt like you don't fit in in life give this movie a watching.
keep the tissues handy.
I love the way it ends but the scene before the ending is painful to watch.

Transgender
The movie base in the 1970's England. Its about a young man. Who feels that he is not a male. But something else. He secretly crossdresses behind his family. Thou he's a adult. He has to hide it. Because its still a society taboo. Forbidden for men to wear women's clothes. When he is accidently discovered wearing a dress by his father. His father tried to shame to be a man. In that moment he start a journey in womenhood. He started act, behave, look, and think like a women. He found a place so become more a woman and be treated like one!

a transgender oldie
If you like older dvds attempting to tackle the current socially relevant issues--this is for you. The acting is wooden and the dialogue laughable. As a period piece it does give us a window into the thinking and attitudes present during this period--1972. I read this novel more than 40 (?) years ago and thought it was well done--today I wouldn't give it a second look. If you want a laugh....go for it.
