BY BOB KRASNER | When Linda Obuchoska walked into Washington Square Park one day five years ago, she had no idea that a chance meeting and a snapshot photo would turn into a friendship and a documentary about, yes, Republican cross-dressers. Her film explores a world of elderly, heterosexual, right-wing men who spend their leisure time dressed as women.-
An editorial and fine art photographer with years of newspaper experience, Obuchoska met "Jeanette," whom she remembers as a "vision in white go-go boots," while hanging out with a friend in the park.-An impromptu photo shoot led to years of camaraderie and a photographic collaboration that evolved into a documentary.
Like many of the film's other subjects, Jeanette, a former C.E.O.,-began cross-dressing late in life. He's a staunch Republican who opposes gay marriage and was married for 50 years. (His late wife supported his obsession.)
Obuchoska has spent the last few years seeking out likeminded cross-dressers and exploring their apparent contradictions.-
