This week we discuss two films which feature male actors dressing as women.
The first is Juwanna Mann (2002), a romantic comedy starring Miguel A. Núñez Jr and Vivica A. Fox. The film tells the story of Jamal Jeffries, a basketball player who, upon getting banned from the league, chooses to disguise himself as a woman, Juwanna Mann, to play on a fictional WNBA team.
The second is Dressed to Kill (1980), starring Angie Dickinson, Michael Caine and Nancy Allen. The film, written and directed by Brian De Palma, acts as an inversion of the tropes of Psycho (1960) and has come under fire in recent times for its portrayal of a central trans character.
