I saw this Plympton-animated film at the Woodstock Animation festival. It has all the things I love in it -- Tim Curry and Bowie and Lou Reed and Hedwig, and discovering yourself. So I'm posting it for all the people who will love it to discover and tell their friends about.

So I was showing my sister some photos from Hedwig and the Angry Inch because she's never heard of it - even though she's a theater major??? - and I came across THIS photo and I just

What artist do I need to pay to draw me some t4t rockstar Steddie using this as the reference???

Since I've learned Mason (who plays Desire) actually sings IRL, I have that big fantasy of meeting Desire in a bar. They'd be on stage, and you know. Hypnotize everyone with their voice? But their gaze would land on me, and they'd see how I can't take my eyes away from them, and they would... Wink.

Ooh, yes. They are so cheeky, it's definitively something they do in their free time to have fun in the Waking world, hehe. Mason's voice is amazing. <3

Hedwig and the angry inch is also a movie worth checking out. Yes, it has some problematic elements but when you consider the time it was made, they aren't surprising.

What is surprising is how the movie isn't actually just about Hedwig being trans, it's about love. It's about the idea of soulmates and coming to the realization that we aren't half of anything, we are wholly ourselves. We don't exist for anybody else. We exist for ourselves.

And accepting yourself as a whole person, even with all your flaws, even when you don't think you're a good person, is the first step to finally starting to heal.

Some people misinterpret the final scene of Hedwig walking away naked as her "detransitioning" or "accepting herself as a man", but that's not what's happening. Her nakedness isn't meant to be literal, it's a visual metaphor. It's scary to strip back all the layers you put on to face the world, and it's terrifying to let others see what's underneath, you feel like you may as well be naked. It's scary to be vulnerable like that.

And it's a movie about a trans character where their transness isn't a punchline, and they aren't dead by the end of the film. Hedwig isn't a perfect person, maybe not even a good person, but she feels real. She's not a throw away gag or a murder victim on some crime show, and for 2001? That was revolutionary.
