Transamerica

Source: Belladonna Productions
I watched the 2005 movie Transamerica which is the film we'll discuss in tomorrow's tutorial for my Film Studies course. Ho hum. I understand irony and the place of camp and parody and it is, of course, better to have you're heart in the right place than not. But it's not sufficient to have good intentions. So what can one say? Well ... it's not an awful film. It's heart is in the right place. And it's of its time and maybe, ten years ago, it was pushing against doors that remained firmly shut. But only maybe. I wish I could say more because I admire the people involved and respect their intentions.
