“After finally getting the chance to see this film, I have to say it was worth the wait. Hillary Swanku0026#39;s performance was outstanding, she certainly deserves the golden globe sheu0026#39;s already won and the oscar, sheu0026#39;s sure to be nominated for. Brandon Teena was real, no questions. The director, Kimberly Pierce deserves much credit for telling the story subtlety, no black and white, heu0026#39;s wrong, sheu0026#39;s right. I came away from this movie realizing the courage you have to possess to be different, the dangers from it are real and we must admire those brave enough among us to be.”
