Movie Reviews of Almost Myself

Movie Review: Good film great music!
Summary: 5 Stars

The film gives a good overview of the trans world. Just like in life there are down to earth folks but also, folks with lots of issues that have nothing to do with their sexual taste, and out right stereotypes. We can learn a lot from all of the individuals in the film. We can certainly walk away knowing that 'it' is as much a mystery to the transperson as it is to str8 people; or gays for that matter.

I thought the use of a transsexual's music in the film is a tribute to Tom Murry's ability to reach out to all communities.

Summary of Almost Myself

After finding a most unusual web site that was seeking funds to help reverse a sex change award winning filmmaker Tom Murray set out on a fascinating cross country journey to explore just a small part of the vastly diverse transgender community. The filmmaker in trying to define the film and what he learned in making it said that it could be described as Transgender 101 by and for a Non-transgender person. What happens with a young Gay man struggling not only with his sexuality but also gender decides to have surgery to become a female and later in life decides to return to being a Gay man again? Can someone live their life full time as a female but still have a penis? What s life like for a former male college football player finally living her life as the women she was always meant to be? These are just some of the stories told in the fascinating poignant informative and some may say controversial documentary ALMOST MYSELF. The film focuses primarily on women who are white and older yet were identified as male at birth. The stories include journeys of boyhood to womanhood and the struggles of mending and transcending gender. DVD contains BONUS material including Director comments footage from the West Hollywood Day of Remembrance event and rally along with a music video by Georgie Jessup.
