I Changed My Sex
[a.k.a. Glen or Glenda, a.k.a. I Led Two
Lives a.k.a. He or She]
Dir: Ed Wood Jr.
Star: Ed Wood Jr., Bela Lugosi, Lyle Talbot, Timothy Farrell
[6] An early plea for tolerance of transvestites, partly auto-biographical since the director is widely
reported to have gone into several WWII battles wearing lacy panties
under his fatigues. Not quite as exploitative as it might have been,
it still seems tasteless, even without Bela Lugosi saying lines like
"Beware, beware, beware the big green dragon that sits on your
doorstep!", for no apparent reason. You'll never be able to look at
an angora sweater again without giggling.
