Transamerica

Hmm...I seem to have started a bit of a transsexual/transvestite theme in this blog.  Anyway, I saw this film last night and it's brilliant.  Felicity Huffman (woman) plays a man, trying to become a woman.  Her performance is so convincing, you really start to believe it.  A week before the big operation, she discovers she's the father to a son from her only sexual experience.  In her attempt to rescue the runaway son, she goes on an unexpected journey with him to LA.  The film follows the start of their relationship that becomes all the more hilarious as new characters come in and secrets become revealed.
