As a portrait of a personality in flux, Alexis Arquette: She's My Brother (More4) was a masterpiece of expressionistic evasion. Filmed in 2005, this series of wobbly video diaries and disjointed interviews captured the transgender actor (and sibling to Patricia, Rosanna and David) in the months leading up to sex reassignment surgery. Born Robert, Arquette had lived as a female "on and off" since the age of 13, but now felt ready to "take the final step – hah-hah!"
