Soon after that painful punch in the stomach feeling which some of the movie scenes convey, I realized that this is a powerful, poignant film based on true story ( ). The lead role gained Hilary Swank a well deserved Oscar. She indeed amazingly portrayed a girl caged in a gender she doesn't want. A rather disturbing movie, but definitely worth a watch.
See, I agree with you on this one. I think this was a much better movie than Brokeback...
Bogey and Gina, it really doesn't matter who you choose as a roommate, by the end of the year both of you will get on each other's nerves. It helps a lot if you could get a two bedroom and have a room to yourself. From my personal experiences, the best time I've ever had away from home was when I had an apartment to myself.
