Review of Boys Don't Cry (1999) by Ghada A — 03 Mar 2009
Perhaps one of the top 10 best debuts of all time.Swank's performance was and is a revelation its a performance that is of the same tier as Daniel Day Lewis.The film is brutal and harsh and I'm glad it is since it shows hate and violence for what it is a disgusting horrifying event in life that is not sanitized.
I hope they release the NC-17 cut one day.The film is visceral and it needed to be because a physical and emotional reaction stays with you forever,and an emotional reaction is only temporary.
