TV review: 'Becoming Chaz' on OWN — Chastity Bono's emotional transformation

In the stirring yet unsatisfying documentary "Becoming Chaz," which airs Tuesday night on OWN, a Los Angeles woman who has lived a life of relative despair (including the death of a lover, the stillbirth of a singing career and a struggle with painkiller addiction) can only truly heal herself by becoming himself. We follow Chaz Bono through a significant part of the process that took place in 2010, including hormone treatments and the surgical removal of his breasts.
