This movie was captivating from the start. The trans-gendered people have almost always been a mystery and existed on the fringe of society, but this film put a human face on this issue. It showed how we all have a need to be together and share our hope and dreams with one another, and it also showed that the politics of friendship know no specific sexual preference barriers. My heart went out to most of these people shown in this project because they have been treated so poorly by society as a whole. Robert Eads died because there were no medical professionals willing to treat him. In the greatest democracy in the history of the world, we still view some citizens as sub-human. It was such an eye opening experience that is still haunts me to this day. Hopefully this film can lead us to a dialog and a dialog can lead us to real change.

I saw this movie in the theater...I am that old. It was full of the new ideas vs. the old establishment clichés. What is remember most was it was the first time I heard the word redneck used in a movie. Over all it was passable. The dialog and costumes were straight outta someone's bad 60's imagination. It was a pretty black and white themed movie as far as the ideas. The one side was right and the other side was always wrong. There was no middle ground of character to try to achieve a balance.It is kind of a poor man's easy rider. Not as well done and with just a lot of stereotypical hippie vs. southern backwoods morality. I was 13 when I saw it, so of course I was pulling for the hippies. Funny, now I am 50 and I still do...go figure.
