Glen or Glenda (I Changed My Sex) 1953
Wood’s most autobiographical film, he stars under a pseudonym in this “docu-drama” about transvestites and sex-change operations. Will his fiance let him wear her angola sweater? See daffy dream sequences, Bela Lugosi as a scientist-narrator and a heartfelt plea for understanding towards men who wear “pink satin undies.” Glen or Glenda?” is a bad movie lover’s dream. Hilarious dialogue, no coherent plotline, and many memorable sequences of transvestites and their hardships.
