"I have to say this film is for every adult, even if they feel uncomfortable about men in drag. This is not strictly a 'LGBT' film, though it is as much centered on a transvestite as it is on the straight boy. This is the first film I've ever seen that has given such a simple and true definition of the challenge between the sexes, e.g. what women look for in straight men but do not find. It is funny, poignant, and has great music, worth getting the CD of the movie's music as well. AND based on a true story. AND has a happy ending. What more could you ask for?"
