Lots of trannie films out this year.
Kinky Boots (2005) was a pleasant surprise. From what sounds a pretty weak premise, it develops into a modest but warm tale of transvestites, glamour, hard knocks and most of all, shoes. Dedicated to all shoe sellers out there - make 'em big!
Grayson Perry, Turner Prize winning artist, was on the TV last night. I hadn't seen him not in a dress before. Prompted me to dig up what the reaction to the "transvestite potter" was back in 2003 when he walked away with £20,000 for his pots.
