This movie really made me think about sexual differences and what it means to have a sex change or to want one, or to be trapped in a gender you don’t want. Actually we did get a brief glimpse in a photo. Swank looks like a boy, acts like a boy, in fact works hard to be a boy; indeed that is sadly part of what this movie is about, what it means to be a boy in middle America as opposed to being a girl.

And then when we have the scene with the tampons and the breast wrapping and we see her legs, the effect is startling, an effect possibly lost on those who knew that the person playing Brandon was a woman. It was when I saw her legs and could tell at a glance that she was a woman with a woman’s legs that I realized just how subtle, but unmistakable are the anatomical sexual differences, and how convincing Swank’s portrayal was.

I was reminded as I watched this of being a young person, of being a teenager and going through all the rituals and rites, unspoken, unplanned, without social sanction, that we all go through to prove our identity, because that is what Brandon was so eager to do, to prove his identity as a boy. I thought, ah such an advantage he has with the girls because he knows what they like and what they want.

He can be smooth, and how pretty he looks. I actually knew some guys in my youth who had such talent, and the girls did love them. The direction by Kimberly Peirce is nicely paced and the forebodings of horror to come are sprinkled lightly throughout so that we don’t really think about the resolution perhaps until the campfire scene in which John Lotter shows his self-inflicted scars and tosses the knife to Brandon.

Then we know for sure, something bad is going to happen.
