    More movies should have a legion of trans women doing massive violence to fascist goons.

    also v funny to make the white hanuman monkey mask and then get rid of it 30 seconds later

    Why must a movie be "good" ? Is it not enough to sit somewhere dark and see a beautiful face, huge?

    The premise is bad. The horror implicit in the plot that is not examined at all in the narrative. The film completely ignores the aspects of the 'real' JT LeRoy that are too controversial -- that "he" was a transsexual who had had vaginoplasty, that he was HIV+.It is crass and insulting to the real woman who was, effectively, raped-by-deception, to real trans women whose struggles were appropriated by these two cis people. But worse than all of that: this movie is boring.

    It's fine? Lighting hadn't been invented yet. The plot is painfully obvious, both the overarching story and the moment-to-moment events. Idk. I had fun, but half of that was being with friends and having drinks lol
