226. Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001)

Photobucket

It is clear that I must find my other half. But is it a he or a she? What does this person look like? Identical to me? Or somehow complementary? Does my other half have what I don't? Did he get the looks? The luck? The love? Were we really separated forceably or did he just run off with the good stuff? Or did I? Will this person embarrass me? What about sex? Is that how we put ourselves back together again? Or can two people actually become one again?

A Rock Opera about a transgendered person with a botched sex change who is trying to find love all the while playing live shows at restuarants and following around his/her famous ex. If that sentence doesn't interest you, then you won't like the movie. I seriously watched this movie four times the day I rented it from East Coast.
