" new trailer for trans film Three Generations has come out, as the film finally approaches its release date.
The film, which stars Elle Fanning, Naomi Watts and Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon, charts the journey of Fanning's Ray as he starts the journey to physically transitioning into a boy. "
I understand why non trans actors are used for stories set pre and post transition... i just wish someone would tell other kinds of stories about trans people too, other than coming-out stories
also the wigs Fanning is wearing looks awful, you'd think she could commit to the role enough to cut her hair?

Wow! What a great idea!
Reminds me of the "Bechdel Test," proposed by cartoonist Alison Bechdel in the 1990s as a test to see whether a Hollywood film paid even minimal attention to women. It was an easy test to pass. You just had to ask yourself this: during this movie, are there two female characters who have a conversation about something other than a man?
Now maybe we need the "Peep Test." During this movie, does a trans character have a conversation with any other character about something other than coming out or transition?
Well played, Peep!

Yes! Do they have a surname? Do they have hobbies?
I think the Bechdel test also states that the female characters have to be named and the conversation has to last a certain amount of time/ words?
