Transgender

From the good to the bad, every depiction of transgender characters in media or media created by (out) transgender people (director or writer) that I have seen.

Drag queens/kings not included, unless they're also trans.

Recommendations and reminders of films I've obviously failed to include welcome. A lot of bad depictions don't come to mind easily, for instance. I will only add things I've seen, as this is a ranked list.

Need to see or rewatch:
Georgie Girl
Paulista
Field Full of Secrets
Screaming Queens
Midori
The Adventures Of Iron Pussy
The Christine Jorgensen Story
Breakfast on Pluto
Escape from LA
Dallas Buyers Club
Miracle Mile
Wild Side
Tales of the City
Ghost in the Shell
Too Scared to Scream…
