Boys Don't Cry (1999)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: col 118m
Director: Kimberly Peirce
Cast: Hilary Swank, Chloë Sevigny, Peter Sarsgaard

Synopsis:

A girl car thief with a sexual identity crisis dresses as a boy, moves to another town where the locals are not exactly broadminded in such matters, and proceeds to strike up a relationship with his unbalanced new friend's ex.

Review:

A powerful film about exactly liberal we all are, not least because the lead performance is so convincing. Based on a true story, it makes few concessions to sparing viewers the tedium of life in a middle-of-nowhere Nebraska town besides some time-lapse sequences and Sevigny's extraordinary physiognomy.
