Nacho Libre (2006): From the makers of Napoleon Dynamite (Ugh!). In the
deleted scenes, Nacho (Jack Black) must appease the Gypsy Emperor (Peter
Stormare) by teaching his birds a new trick, so he becomes "Bird Lady" and is
presented wearing a Mexican type wedding dress with a bunch of live birds
attached to it. TR:2.0
Naked Truth (1992): Okay, this is a silly film with a bad IMDB rating,
but it has lots of great drag action. It's your basic drag plot of two guys
(Robert Coso, Kevin Schon) hiding from the meanies by disguising themselves
as hairdressers for a beauty pageant. They are in drag for a good portion of
the film and look pretty good. AKA: Glitch II. TR:4.6
Nancy Drew... Detective (1938): In order to find a wealthy dowager,
Nancy Drew (Bonita Granville) persuades Ted Nickerson (Frankie Thomas) to dress
up as a nurse to infiltrate a rest home... and he doesn't look too bad. For
fun, I decided to colorize the photos. TR:3.9

Nancy Drew And The Hidden Staircase (1939): Nancy (Bonita Granville)
helps two aging spinsters fulfill a will and donate their house. As usual, she
gets Ted Nickerson (Frankie Thomas) involved in helping find a secret door
when his clothes are stolen... and the only thing he could find to wear was a
Victorian bustle gown he found in the basement... but why did he also put on
the matching hat? I guess he wanted to complete the outfit. For fun, I decided
to colorize the photos. TR:3.7

Nancy Drew... Reporter (1939): Nancy (Bonita Granville) attempts to
clear a woman of a crime by enlisting the help of Sgt Entwhistle (Olin
Howland). The Sergeant uses the disguise of an old lady to spy on and arrest
the criminal who holds the evidence to clear her. TR:3.0
Never Look Back (1996): Jill (Nicole Cannon) leaves her hometown and
fiance to persue a career in modeling. Once she arrives at South Beach, she
befriends two drag queens (Candis Cayne, Girlina) who guide her along the way.
Formulaic and a bit cheesy, but worth watching for the lovely Candis. AKA:
Always Something Better. TR:4.0
Never Too Young To Die (1986): Van Ragnar (Gene Simmons) is an
hermaphrodite gang leader who wants to poison the town's water system. However,
(s)he needs a disc that is being protected by a secret agent's son, Lance
Stargrove (John Stamos). I almost hate to admit that I liked some parts of this
movie! Also stars Vanity as the love interest and Robert Englund as a gang
member! TR:3.5
New Adventures Of Pinocchio (1999): A new chapter in the story of
Pinocchio... with a good bit of drag! We see a lot of Madame Flabeau (Udo Kier)
who is running a traveling carnival. Her elixer turns Geppeto (Martin Landau)
into a puppet... however he enjoys being the star of her show which includes
Pinocchio (Gabriel Thomson). At one point in their act, real-boy Pinocchio
comes out dressed as a girl to draw the attention of all the male puppets...
and he looks really cute. The carnival also includes (at least) one male clown
who we always see dressed as a girl clown. TR:4.6
New Girl, The (1985): A quirky little movie with lots of stereotypical
characters. After Chris (Duke Rightious, in his one and only role) wrote a
scathing review on women's athletics, he is blackmailed onto the ladies
basketball team as "Crystal". Standard drag situations apply. Crystal looks
pretty cute, but not the ringer (x x) the rival basketball team had in the
finals. TR:4.8
New Life, A (1988): Steve (Alan Alda) just got divorced and is looking
for some action, so he stops at a trendy new club. He spots a good looking
woman (Alec Mapa) sitting by herself and starts chatting her up. They end up
leaving together when the woman reveals herself to be a reluctant crossdressing
mugger! She also shows up for a brief glance at the end when Steve's best
friend Mel (Hal Linden) starts hitting on her. A quick glance at Alec's credits
show he plays many TG roles. TR:4.6

Newlydeads (1987): The owner of a lakeside resort murders a
transvestite (Scott Kaske). Fifteen years later, the transvestite's spirit
comes back and starts killing honeymoon couples. Why honeymoon couples and why
fifteen years later? We never really know. Okay, a little silly but an
interesting movie. BTW, Scott is one of the Goldman Girls in Birdcage. TR:4.0
Click for frame grabs.
Nic Smiesznego (1995): A Polish comedy that is intentionally
depressing. Adam (Cezary Pazura) spends the whole movie showing us how bad his
life is. There is a little clip from his childhood when his Mother (Agnieszka
Wagner) dresses young Nic (Franciszek Barcis) up as a girl (since he is their
second child and they wanted a girl) and gives him a dolly to hold. AKA:
Nothing Funny. TR:3.0
Night Of The Living Babes (1987): This obscure film runs just under an
hour. Chuck and Buck (Andy Nichols, Louie Bonanno) are looking for some action
at a zombie brothel. The madame (Forrest Witt) is wanting more working girls so
she chains them up in red tights and pink tutu's and is planning to use her
sex-change ray gun on them. Looking for exciting action, decent acting, and
good-looking transvestites? Well, you're not going to find it here. TR:2.4
Nighthawks (1981): Deke DaSilva (Sylvester Stallone) is a cop who must
track down an international terrorist. The first scene sets up his no-nonsense
style as he wears no-nonsense pantyhose... yes, he is dressed like a woman to
catch a mugger. It's more believable than you think because he is all covered
up with coat, head scarf, and female mask. *Spoiler alert*... we also see him
again in minimal drag (blonde wig and robe) at the end of the movie. TR:3.5
Nightmare On Elm Street 4: Dream Master (1988): Freddy Krueger (Robert
Englund) continues terrorizing teens in their dreams. After a nasty bump on the
head, Kristen (Tuesday Knight) awakes but doesn't realize the nurse (Joanna
Lipari) has been replaced by Freddy in drag. TR:3.9
No Questions Asked (1951): Insurance lawyer Steve Keiver (Barry
Sullivan) is refused a raise he needs to marry his girlfriend. However; he
finds nice commissions when he arranges to become a "middle-man" between the
insurance company and gangsters. The film's big heist occurs when the gangsters
hire two female impersonators, Floyd (William Reynolds) and Roger (William
Phipps), to steal ladies jewelry in the powder room at a high-society function.
Both were "passable" and attractive in their formal gowns and furs, especially
Reynolds in the brunette hair. TR:4.8

No Way To Treat A Lady (1968): Christopher (Rod Steiger) Kim August.
Nobody's Perfect (1989): Steve (Chad Lowe) is a college freshman who
falls so in love with Shelly (Gail O'Grady) that he can't do anything but think
of her. His friends suggest the only way to get over her is to become close as
possible to her... meaning that he joins the women's tennis team she is on,
attend classes she is in (as a girl), and even becoming her female roommate.
Standard drag situations apply. Highly improbable, and while Chad is not
convincing as a girl, he does look quite cute as one! TR:4.5
Norbit (2007) A challenged guy (Eddie Murphy) marries fat bully Rasputia
(also Eddie Murphy) but longs for his childhood sweetheart (hottie Thandie
Newton). The Rasputia bodysuit is pretty amazing... and definitely there are
some funny parts at the water park. Eddie also plays Mr. Wong, the orphange
owner... a transformation so good that it fooled the entire cast. TR:4.0
Normal (2003): Roy (Tom Wilkinson) has two children and has been married
to Irma (Jessica Lange) for 25 years, but decides the stress of being a woman
trapped in a man's body has grown intolerable and pursues a sex-change
operation. This is a difficult movie to watch and you often find yourself
thinking... "why is he doing this?". However, it is portrayed in a very honest
manner and it does have a high IMDB rating. It's worth a watch. TR:4.1
Nothing But Trouble (1991): My oh my, this is a bizarre film... which
is part of its appeal. Chevy Chase and Demi Moore get caught speeding in a
small backwoods town. One of the inhabitants is Eldona (one of the dual roles
played by John Candy) who has her eyes set on Chevy for a husband. TR:3.3
Now You Know (2002): Jeremy (Jeremy Sisto) and Kerri (Rashida Jones)
spend the length of the film trying to figure out why they have broken off
their engagement. Transvestite KC (Bijoux Deluxe) gets hired for Jeremy's
second bachelor party flop... and we find out she was also the rather tall girl
at the lesbian club when Kerri was discussing her relationship problems. Wow,
Bijoux is really skinny! TR:3.8
Nuns On The Run (1990): Brian and Charlie (Eric Idle, Robbie Coltrane)
are good-hearted gangsters looking to get out of the mob. They decide to steal
their latest heist and fly to Rio, but when it goes bad they end up hiding in a
convent as two nuns. Trying to complete their trip, they end up as both nurses
and flight attendants towards the end of the movie. It's a lot of good natured
fun. TR:4.4
Nutty Professor (1996): Overweight professor Sherman Klump (Eddie
Murphy) tests his experimental formula for weight loss to win the heart of
Carla Purty (Jada Pinkett Smith). Eddie plays seven characters including Mama
Klump and Grandma Klump. TR:3.3
Nutty Professor II: The Klumps (2000): Overweight professor Sherman
Klump's (Eddie Murphy) alter ego Buddy keeps resurfacing to ruin his marriage
plans with colleague Denise (Janet Jackson). Eddie plays seven characters
including Mama Klump and Grandma Klump. TR:3.3
Oh, Susanna! (1936): Gene Autry is robbed and thrown off a moving train.
He is rescued by two traveling actors who help him catch the thief. One of the
actors, Frog (Smiley Burnette), dresses as a woman for their vaudeville act. He
remains dressed when he comes out into the audience to watch the rest of the
show and for the final knife-throwing act for which he is the target. TR:3.3
On Each Side (2005): Unexplained and boring stories are shown in this
"documentary" centered on the making of a bridge in Argentina connecting
Victoria and Rosario. A mysterious and silent engineer sneaks away for dates
with a female impersonator. We really don't know much more than that. AKA: Cado
Lado, A. TR:3.4
On Guard (1997): This is an enjoyable French swashbuckler movie.
Lagardere (Daniel Auteuil) has taken custody of baby girl Aurore (Marie
Gillain) whose father, Duke Nevers (Vincent Perez), was killed in a swordfight.
Lagardere ends up raising her in a traveling theater troupe waiting one day to
take revenge for the Duke. Years later, Aurore has grown up and has a comedy
act with her boyfriend Marcello (James Thierree) where they are crossdressed on
stage. After a show one night, they are invited to a party at the palace (for
nefarious reasons) which they attend while still in costume. At the party they
are separated and Marcello is dragged to a backroom and almost raped when its
Aurore to the rescue! AKA: Le Bassu. TR:4.4
On The Avenue (a): Ritz Brothers
On The Town (1949): Three sailors (Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly, Jules
Munshin) are on a 24-hour pass in New York City. In a search for Miss Turnstile
(Vera-Ellen) they try to elude the cops in Coney Island by diguising themselves
as harem girls. Yeah, they generously use the veils. Overall, an innocent and
wonderful MGM musical. TR:3.6
Once Bitten (1985): Mark (Jim Carrey) goes out looking for a one-night
stand and finds a female vampire needing his virgin blood. In the beginning of
the movie, he and his friends are at a dating bar when they are summoned by a
man in drag (Alan McRae) at table 17. TR:3.6
Click for frame grabs.
Once In A Blue Moon (1995): Peter Piper (Cody Serpa) is a little boy
who deals with the trials and tribulations of growing up in a somewhat poor
family. His wardrobe consists of a pair of red bell-bottom pants and his
sister's hand-me-down blouses. TR:1.5
One Of Our Aircraft Is Missing (1942): When the Nazi's shoot down a
British bomber, its crew seeks help from the Dutch underground. To check Nazi
activity, the crew attend a religious service (in disguises) with the Dutch...
and one of them (Hugh Williams) elects to go dressed as a Dutch woman. TR:4.0
One, Two, Three (1961): From the director of "Some Like It Hot" comes a
comedy about a Coca-Cola executive (James Cagney) who may be fired if the can't
keep his American boss's daughter (Pamela Tiffin) from marrying communist Otto
(Horst Buchholz). Dressed in a pretty polka-dot dress, Schlemmer (Hanns Lothar)
is used as a decoy when Otto is kidnapped. For fun, I decided to colorize the
photos. TR:3.5

Onion Field, The (1979): True story about the shooting of a cop amongst
the onion fields in Bakersfield California and the failings of the justice
system. You're not missing much when the police bring in a drag queen (Rene La
Vant) and his John for booking. TR:2.2
Operation Fred (1972): Fred (Danny La Rue) is entertaining the troops at
a camp show in France when the Nazi's advance. They let him go thinking he is a
"harmless" female. The fun ensues when he hides out with some randy English
schoolgirls and at the same time helps out in the war cause. Fun movie and
great retro costumes (think lots of maribou, feathers, and chiffon) and the
runway fashion show is a real treat. AKA: Our Miss Fred. TR:5.0
Orlando (1992): This rather bizarre film follows Orlando (Tilda Swinton)
through four centuries and two genders. The first half is her life as a male,
although she is not very believable as one. We also find Queen Elizabeth
(Quentin Crisp) being portrayed as an old man in a big dress... oh I forgot,
Quentin *is* an old man. For completeness sake, we also see a short snippet of
"Othello" with Lady Desdemona (Oleg Pogodin). TR:2.6
Other Voices Other Rooms (1995): Set in 1930's Alabama, young Joel
(David Speck) is sent to see his father who left him and his mother nine years
ago. He arrives at a deteriorating plantation house owned by eccentric artist
Randolph (Lothaire Bluteau) and southern belle Amy (Anna Levine). Besides
Randolph's colorful feminine pajamas (which he wears through 95% of the movie),
he occasionally likes to dress up in his pink Victorian ball gown to relive his
Mardi Gras experience and his wonderful night dancing with Pepe. Joel also
befriends two neighboring sisters Idabell (Aubrey Dollar) and Florabell
(Elizabeth Byler) who are complete opposites... one is always seen in feminine
dresses while the other is always dressed as a boy. Filled with many offbeat
characters, you'll have to see this to appreciate it. TR:4.0
Outrageous! (1977): Craig Russell
Pacifier, The (2005): Navy SEAL Shane Wolfe (Vin Diesel) is assigned to
babysit and protect five kids. It's a cute movie, but one that I am tempted not
to list. You're not missing anything when Murney (Brad Garrett) plays a Nun in
a "Sound Of Music" production. TR:0.3
Pageant (2008): I was originally hoping this would be a documentary on
"Pageant: The Play", but instead it's a portrait of five men (Victoria DePaula,
Victoria Parker, Chantel Reshae, Coti Collins, Alina Malleti) competing in the
Miss Gay America pageant. Nonetheless, it's quite compelling and interesting.
TR:4.0
Palindromes (2004): This is a VERY bizarre and bleak movie about a young
girl, Aviva, who desperately wants to have a baby to love. Aviva is played by a
variety of different characters including a fat black woman, several white
girls, and a boy (Will Denton). Will has the smallest screen time and only seen
wearing a crop top and jeans. TR:1.0
Palmy Days (1931): Eddie Cantor stars in this politically-incorrect
musical comedy. It's the standard "dressing for disguise" when Eddie is trying
to escape henchmen from his previous employment. During a chase, he ends up
being knocked out in a laundry basket containing the ladies' factory uniforms.
A few seconds later, he wakes up in complete uniform, wig, and makeup... yeah
right. With his slim figure and femme face, he looks really good! He ends up
following the ladies into the locker room and has to decide how to strip for
the mandatory nude swimming exercises. I guess swimsuits and modesty had not
been invented yet. :) Also see: Ali Baba Goes To Town. TR:4.7
Paper Dolls (2006): Documentary about a small group of Filipinos
(Giorgio, Chiqui, Cheska, Sally, Jan) living in Israel who perform in their
off-time as the drag troupe "Paper Dolls". The film is as much about the
tribulations relating to global immigration when Israel reverses its decision
on allowing foreign workers and starts forcibly deporting them. AKA: Bubot
Niyar. TR:3.2
Parental Guidance (1998): An offbeat comedy about relationships within a
black suburban family. One of the family members has to decide if he is
bringing his transsexual girlfriend (Marque D'Marco) to the family Christmas
party. Involves a few sprinkled scenes with only a marginally convincing TS.
AKA: Kinfolks. TR:2.2
Click for frame grabs.
Paris Holiday (1958): A lot of things going on in the plot here, but
suffice it to say that Bob Hope finds himself in a mental institution when his
friend (Fernand "Fernandel" Contandin) shows up dressed as a woman to help him
escape. TR:2.6
Click for frame grabs.
Paris Is Burning (1990): Documentary on the New York gay "ball" circuit,
explaining houses, voguing, and other terminology. Featuring Dorian Corey,
Pepper/Candy LaBeija, Kim Pendavis, Angie/Brenda/Venus/Brooke/Carmen/Amy/Carla
Xtravaganza, Octavia Saint Laurent, Willi Ninja, Tennille/Paris Kathy Dupree.
Definitely a interesting period piece of bygone days. TR:3.3
Party Monster (2003): Michael Alig (Macaulay Culkin) doesn't quite fit
in his Indiana hometown, so he moves to New York to become a "fabulous"
club-kid and party organizer. He becomes quite successful with his own record
label, magazine and Disco 2000 parties, until he spirals downward with massive
drug-use, debt, and finally murder. The only one who seems to have any sense is
his mentor James St. James (Seth Green) who ends up writing a book about the
events, entitled "Disco Bloodbath", on which the movie is based. Marilyn Manson
also appears as drag queen Christina, and showed up for filming with his own
wig, breast forms, and butt padding! The drag here is highly flamboyant and not
of the passable form. TR:3.9
Patchwork Girl Of Oz (1914): A munchkin boy (Violet MacMillan) and her
guardian Nunkie (Frank Moore) are traveling to Oz for food. They stop and visit
the magician and his wife Margolette (Leontine Dranet), who is making a
patchwork girl to help with chores. However, Margolette and Nunkie accidentally
get turned to stone when bringing the Patchwork Girl (Pierre Couderc) to life.
The remaining cast head off on an adventure to get the ingredients for the
antidote. Clearly the boy is played by a female and the patchwork girl is
played by a male... why the gender reversal? We don't really know. TR:2.3
Pdei La-aw ()
Peacock (2010)An odd and slightly creepy movie starring Cillian Murphy.
He plays John Skillpa, a young man apparently tormented by years of child abuse
under the thumb of his Mother and suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder.
On the weekends, he enjoys playing is own wife Emma... making his breakfast,
doing the wash, and leaving shopping notes for her "husband". If you've seen
Breakfast On Pluto (recommended), you will know that Cillian looks great, with
my only complaint being the lack of padding and feminine under things. Lots of
screen time for Emma! TR:4.0

Peck's Bad Boy with the Circus (1938): The third and final installment
of the Bill Peck movies. Bill (Tommy Kelly) has spent all his traveling money,
but needs to get to the summer camp race. Eventually he is able to catch a ride
with the traveling circus, but when the bareback riding girl hurts her leg,
it's up to Bill to fill in for her... in curly wig and her "show" dress!
There's no time to change clothes before arriving at camp and running the big
race. TR:3.8
Pee Wee's Big Adventure (1985): Pee Wee Herman (Paul Reubens) sets out
to find his stolen bike. He hitches a ride to Texas with wanted man Mickey
(Judd Omen) and to get past a police checkpoint he dresses as Mickey's
girlfriend. Pee Wee finds his bike being used on a set and dresses as a nun to
get it back. I must admit this was much more entertaining than I originally
thought and includes a neat chase that goes on throughout the Warner Brothers
Lot. TR:2.7

Perfect Gift (1994): Randal (John McCafferty) plays a prank on his
girlfriend Suzanne (Kim Dawson) by hitting on her at a bar while dressed up as
a woman. He later uses the same outfit as a disguise. He doesn't look too bad,
but we never find out where he got the wig, clothes, and shoes on the spur of
the moment! TR:3.9
Perils Of Pauline (1947): Cute little movie starring Betty Hutton and
John Lund. Julia is running late for a play so Timmy (Billy De Wolfe) has been
volunteered to play her part. You're not missing much when he is forcefully
strapped into a corset and is about to have his trademark mustache shaved
before Julia shows up to save the day. TR:1.0
Personal Services (1987): This film stars Julie Walters (of Just Like A
Woman) and is loosely based on the real experiences of "Madame" Cynthia Payne.
Several of her clients indulge in different fetishes (bondage, transvestism)
and such scenes are sprinkled throughout the movie. TR:3.7
Philadelphia (1993): Excellent movie about a man, Andrew Beckett (Tom
Hanks), who gets fired from a conservative law firm because he has AIDS. He
hires a lawyer, Joe (Denzel Washington), and sues the law firm. When trial
preparations become too monotonous, he and his partner (Antonio Banderas)
throw a costume party. One of the partygoers dresses as Mona Lisa (Peter
Jacobs) and another comes as a goth bride. After the party, Andrew remarks to
Joe, "looks like you survived your first gay party!". TR:2.0
Philadelphia Experiment (1984): Based loosely on an actual 1943 military
experiment, two men are accidentally sent 40 years into the future. The
military apprehend one of the men (Michael Pare) and place him in a small
holding cell that has a very convincing transvestite (Clayton Wilcox), well...
except for the voice. Unfortunately, it's a short scene. TR:3.9
Pigalle (1994): What can I say about this muddled mess of scenes in the
sex-crazed and drug-ridden streets of Pigalle? Divine (Blanca Li) is a
transsexual performer and the lover of a man named Fifi (Francis Renaud)... who
is a street hustler and petty thief. Fifi, in turn, loves Divine but flirts
with Vera (Vera Briole), a striptease dancer and peep show attraction. Divine
is bullied into giving information to one drug dealer, but the opposition uses
Vera as bait to enlist Fifi as a hitman. Fifi also is taking advantage of and
being seduced by Fernande (Raymond Gil), an aging drag queen and owner of a
small cabaret. Confused yet? Wait until you see the movie. TR:2.9
Pinero (2001): Autobiographical film based on the life of Miguel Pinero
(played by Benjamin Bratt). Miguel was a notable poet-playwright, but never got
past his life of crime and drug-dealing/using. At one point, he has a meeting
with a drag queen (Al Rodriguez) who wants to hire him to write a play for her.
TR:3.2
Pink Flamingos (1972): Bab's (Divine/Glen Milstead) family battles for
the title of "The Filthiest People Alive"... and if what's in this film doesn't
qualify as "filth", I don't know what does! It's all here folks: cradled
egg-lusting Grandma (Edith Massey), a crossdressing butler (Channing Wilroy),
enslaved female baby-makers, and even Babs performing fellatio on her son
(Danny Mills). As an added treat, a male flasher comes across a beautiful girl
(Elizabeth Coffey) in a polka-dot dress and after he flashes her, she lifts up
her dress and shows she has a bigger one! Elizabeth was a pre-op TS and had the
final surgery one week to the day after filming. TR:2.5
Pink Panther, Curse Of The (1983): Inspector Clouseau (Roger Moore,
yes... that's right) has gone missing, so they employ the smartest computer in
the world to pick a detective to find him. The pick is police detective Clifton
Sleigh (Ted Wass), who is introduced on a case posing as a prostitute... curly
blonde wig, red top, and red leather mini-skirt! TR:3.9
Pink Panther, Return Of The (1975): Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers)
is put on the case when the Pink Panther diamond is stolen. You're not missing
much when Cato (Burt Kwouk) launches a surprise attack as a Japanese waitress.
TR:2.0
Pink Panther, Revenge Of The (1978): To prove his company is strong,
Philippe Douvier (Robert Webber) decides to kill Chief Inspector Clouseau
(Peter Sellers) as a show of strength. They kill the wrong person when armed
crossdressing bank robber Claude/Claudine Russo (Sue Lloyd) forces Clouseau
to switch outfits... heels, fur coat, wig and supposedly a dress. Clouseau
continues to wear this (sans wig) in many scenes afterwards. TR:3.0
Pink Panther Strikes Again (1976): While investigating a kidnapping,
Chief Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) discovers butler Jarvis (Michael
Robbins) is a female impersonator (with beard shadow). People want to see
Clouseau taken out, so one big German assassin (Eddie Stacey) badly dresses as
a dirndl bar maid and tries to give the inspector a big hug! TR:3.7
Pink Panther 2 (2009): Guess what? Yep... the Pink Panther diamond has
been stolen (with other world treasures). A Dream Team of inspectors has been
assembled to track down the thief, "Tornado". The team includes Inspector
Clouseau (Steve Martin) and Pepperidge (Alfred Molina)... who agrees to wear a
pink tutu dress and fluffy handbag if Clouseau finds the Pink Panther... and he
does. TR:2.5
Pirates Of The Caribbean: Curse Of The Black Pearl (2003): Disney's
action-packed pirate adventure. An undead pirate crew dresses up two crewmen
(Lee Arenberg, Mackenzie Crook) in victorian dresses, hats, and parasols to
provide a distraction as the rest of the crew secretly board a ship. Don't
expect too much... remember, they are undead. TR:3.4

Plajda (2008): I don't understand Turkish, but it's clear that two guys
(Sarp Apak, Gurgen Oz) witness a mafia murder and decide to lay low at a resort
disguised as women. Who knew that the mafia kingpin would pick that resort for
his latest deal and fall in lust with one of the guys! Actually, they don't
look *that* bad and stay in drag for the majority of the film. TR:4.5
Playboys, The (1992): A small traveling acting troupe arrive at a
provincial Irish 1950's village. Timmy (Brian O'Leary) is the youngest male in
the troupe and also the third can-can "girl". The leader Freddie (Milo O'Shea)
decides to have the group act out "Gone With The Wind" with himself playing
Mammy. Timmy plays Scarlett's sister in a beautiful southern belle gown and
actually looks quite cute. TR:4.6
Playhouse, The (1921): In the opening dream sequence for this silent
short (20 minutes), Buster Keaton plays every part (through multiple exposure
in those days)... playhouse stagehands, band members, on-stage actors, and
every audience member. Three playhouse boxseats are shown... the first with a
dressed-up housewife and husband, second with a boy and his craggly nanny, and
finally with a refined lady and her husband. With Buster's slim frame and
feminine features, the female characters look great (especially the latter) and
quite genuine. TR:4.4
Playing By Heart (1998): Star-studded movie about 11 articulate people
working through affairs of the heart. Hugh (Dennis Quaid) is involved in an
acting class and tests his creativity by ad-libbing sob stories to anyone who
will listen. He is caught in the act when he goes to a drag club and tells his
troubles to Lana (Alec Mapa). Alec looks quite natural and his filmography
reveals mostly drag roles. In the background we have glimpses of drag queens
David Ferguson and Worthie Meacham. Recommended. TR:4.4
Plug Lady (1999): A young man (Anthony Saladino) leaves the Midwest to
find fame in his drag persona "The Plug Lady". He also finds love in a drug
dealer named Skunk (J.P. Donahue) and therefore decides he needs to quickly
finance his sex-change operation. To save money, he moves in with drag queen
friend, Jaded (Jeffrey Middleton), who is also looking to get a sex-change. The
whole situation comes to a head when his mother unexpectedly shows up two days
before his surgery. I am unsure how to describe this film... it's amateurish,
yet it does have a certain charm. TR:3.6
Police Academy 3: Back In Training (1986): Moses Hightower (Bubba Smith)
briefly poses as a woman to catch a purse snatcher... of course, even from
behind he looks nothing like a woman! Special features has Bubba talking about
wearing a dress and the male stuntman Wink Roberts talks about his doing the
stunts for all principal characters... to include the females. TR:1.1
Police Academy 5: Assignment Miami Beach (1988): The police academy gang
head to Miami for Commandant Lassard's retirement ceremony. Shortly after
arriving at the Miami airport, they literally run into Lassard's nephew (Matt
McCoy) who is chasing a thief (Arthur Edwards) dressed in drag... very bad
drag. TR:2.0
Police Academy 7: Mission To Moscow (1994): The police academy gang are
hired by the Russian government to help deal with the Mafia. Huh? Hang on... it
gets worse. When needing to arrest the kingpin, they are refused entrance to
the ballet without a ticket so Captain Harris (G.W. Bailey) sneaks in to become
one of the ballerina's for Swan Lake... it's not a pretty picture. TR:3.4
Popcorn (1991): A rather uninspired cheesy slasher movie that involves
a bunch of theater students staging an all-night horror film marathon. The
shadowy murderer (Matt Falls) ends up dressing like many of his victims
including one of the female students, Tina. Don't expect too much... it's all
in the dark and we just see his hands and a small portion of his face. TR:1.0
Potluck (2002): Guy (Jason Mewes) and friend unknowingly enter a trans
club. The singer, Edie (Christopher Kenney), and her transvestite friend
(Rafaella) start flirting with them. Guy's roaming hands find her secret and
after the initial shock of discovery, he decides to go with it... after all,
she is a hot-looking "dude". I agree! Edie was voted best drag queen in NY in
2000 and performs regularly in Manhatten. He has more screen time out of drag
because Kenney is also Frank's (Frank Adonis) gay son Anthony. His website is:
Simply Edie. AKA: High Times Potluck.

Preaching To The Perverted (1997): A minister (Tom Bell) on a moral
crusade employs young intern Peter (Christien Anholt) to infiltrate the London
S&M scene to gather evidence. As part of his "initiation" into the scene, Peter
is forced to be a ponygirl with stockings, high-heeled ankle boots, and um...
inserted pony tail. A few androgynous slaves and transvestites (Wayne Avelinei,
Peter Pleased, O'Malley Patrick) can be seen in the background. TR:2.0
Prime Suspect 3: Keeper Of Souls (1993): A UK crime series centered
around DCI Jane Tennison (Helen Mirren). This case involves the murder of a
young male prostitute Connie/Colin (Greg Saunders) in the apartment of female
impersonator Vera (Peter Capaldi). You will see many drag queens at the club
where Vera performs including Red (Pearce Quigley). When the club needs to be
investigated, officers Haskons and Lillie (Richard Hawley, Philip Wright) get
into drag as it would draw less attention. As you can see... quite a lot of
drag in this 2-disc set. TR:4.0
Princesa (2001): Fernando (Ingrid De Souza) is a 19-year-old Brazilian
transsexual. He travels to Milan and becomes a prostitute to finance his
sex-change operation. He dreams of becoming a "real" woman but is transformed
instead into Princesa, a mysterious figure of allure. She then meets Gianni
(Cesare Bocci), a straight-laced, married businessman who falls in love with
her. It all seems to good to be true... and is. This has a fair IMDB rating,
but I found it difficult.
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994): Two drag queens (Hugo Weaving,
Guy Pearce) and a transsexual (Terence Stamp) contract to perform a drag show
at Alice Springs, a resort town in the remote Australian desert. They head west
from Sydney aboard their lavender bus, Priscilla. Where else do you get to see
Elrond/Agent Smith in drag? TR:4.6
Prisoner Of Honor (1991): An HBO movie that
documents the Dreyfus Affair that saw a French Captain sent to Devils Island
for espionage. At one point they show a homosexual brothel which has guys
paired up with other guys dressed in drag. We are lead in by a very cute boy
prostitute (David Bamford) dressed in ladies nightwear. We also see him for a
few seconds in the scene afterward in normal women's apparel. TR:4.1

Private Parts (1997): The auto-biographical story of Howard Stern's
rise to fame. Each of Howard's moves to a different station are introduced by a
person off the street interview. His move to D.C. was introduced by two
transvestites (Danna Bradley, Seth Silver) in front of the White House. TR:2.0
Private Popsicle (1982): Three guys (Yftach Katzur, Zachi Noy, Jonathan
Sagall) join the army. They sneak out one night to meet girls, but spot their
commanding sergeant at the club. They try to get away by donning showgirl
disguises they find backstage, but then end up being forced on stage to
perform. (Okay, they find three outfits/shoes of the right sizes, don them (to
include pantyhose), and do their makeup within a few seconds... yeah RIGHT!).
Two of them also end up dressing as dinner dates when the sergeant falls in
love with Zachi. There is also another scene when the homosexual base doctor
strips down for some loving with Zachi, and is found to be wearing a red
bustier under his uniform. BTW, the boys look pretty good as girls. AKA: Lemon
Popsicle IV. AKA: Sapihes. TR:4.5

Private Resort (1985): Two teenage boys (Johnny Depp, Rob Morrow) chase
girls for the weekend at a Florida resort. Rob's character spends the majority
of the movie being chased by a jewel thief (Hector Elizondo) and hotel
security. Towards the end, he ducks into a fashion show to elude them and ends
up being chased the rest of the movie in a purple dress and heels as a busty
brunette. Wow, it's weird seeing Johnny Depp so young. TR:3.7
Privates On Parade (1982): British comedy starring John Cleese and Denis
Quilley. Members of a (gay) army song and dance troop entertain the soldiers on
the front line. Many routines involve members of the group doing female
impersonation. TR:3.8

Producers, The (1968): Two producers (Zero Mostel, Gene Wilder) set
out to make money producing the biggest flop to hit broadway, "Springtime For
Hitler". They pay a visit to Lorenzo DuBois (Dick Shawn) and ask him to direct.
He is first seen behind a privacy screen, but then walks out in a ball gown...
claiming he is about to attend a costume party. Unfortunately, it's sans makeup
and he doesn't put on the wig until the end of the scene. TR:3.3
Promises! Promises! (1963): The claim of fame for
this film is that it's the only one in which Jayne Mansfield appears nude (sort
of). I got this as part of my TC Jones collection. He plays Babette, a ships
hairdresser, but unfortunately, there's no full dressing. During an onboard
baby shower, he does a few short impersonations with different wigs on. TR:0.9

Protector, The (2005): Young fighter Kham (Tony Jaa) must travel to
Australia to retrieve his stolen elephant. He locates the baby elephant in a
restaurant owned by the evil Madame Rose (Xing Jing), the leader of the
international Thai mafia. Xing Jing is one of China's most famous modern
dancers, a world class ballerina, actress... and also a transsexual. There are
two documentaries about her life, Colonel Jin Xing: A Unique Destiny (2004)
and Jin Xing: Shanghai Dancer (2008). There is also information on her
Wikipedia page. TR:3.4
Psycho (1960): Alfred Hitchcock's psychological thriller masterpiece
about the disappearance of an embezzling woman (Janet Leigh), creepy hotel
owner Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins), and his mother. Spoiler: Norman keeps the
memory of his dead mother alive by occasionally dressing up as her and killing
people who become too involved in his mundane life. TR:1.8
Psycho Beach Party (2000): Charles Busch
Q & A (1990): A gritty crime drama starring Nick
Nolte as a corrupt police detective. International Chrysis has a large role
here in her one and only film credit. She probably would have gone on to many
more if she had not died the same year. TR:4.0

Queen, The (1968): Documentary following a 1967 national drag queen
pageant from start (orientation) to finish (post-pageant bickering).
Jack/Sabrina is the coordinator/hostess with opening musical number provided by
Mario Montez! Contestants include gorgeous but sulky Harlow (Richard),
sore-loser Miss Crystal, Miss Alfonzo, and if I'm not mistaken... International
Chrysis and the origin of her boy footage used in "Split". A great (although
poorly lit, hand-held) vintage piece and a must-see for those who like those
"queens of yesteryear"... and I do... I really do! TR:4.8
Queens At Heart (1965): Short documentary (22 minutes) where four cute
drag ball contestants (female impersonators Misty, Vickie, Sonya, Symone) are
asked embarrassing questions about their love life and career. Included on the
"Homo Promo" DVD which is a small grouping of vintage gay trailers. TR:4.0
Quiet Earth (1985): Zac (Bruno Lawrence) is a scientist that was
involved in an experiment making him possibly the last human on earth. After a
few days of trying to find other people, he becomes lonely and frustrated.
Realizing he may never see or touch another woman, we find him in a full white
slip looking at his reflection. The next scene we see him on a balcony, wrapped
in a purple gown (still wearing the slip) and giving a speech to cardboard
cutouts announcing he is president of the world. He continues wearing the slip
in the following scenes as well. TR:1.5
Rafoo Chakkar (1975): The Indian version of "Some Like It Hot".
Everything is here, starting right from the train station. Each of the roles
are the same too, Dev (Rishi Kapoor) tries to woo a fellow band member (Neetu
Singh) pretending to be a rich suitor, while Salim (Paintal) takes to his girl
role a little too well! Being an Indian film, they have added additional and
longer musical numbers and a twist with the guys being brothers and their
mother and aunt playing roles. And if you don't remember the original ending...
well, nobody's perfect. TR:5.0
Rage (2009): Rage is what I would be feeling if I had paid to sit
through this plotless movie; which is composed soley of talking head interviews
babbling on about the fashion industry. The most exciting part of this film was
the color backgrounds for names such as Judi Dench, John Leguizamo, Eddie
Izzard, and Jude Law (who plays Minx, a transgendered "model"). What were they
thinking? The headshots on the box cover... *is* the movie. What some may call
an "innovative concept", I call the most boring and dullest schlock I have ever
fast-forwarded through. TR:1.0
Rage In Placid Lake (2003): Placid Lake (Ben Lee) is trying to find
himself after his unconventional upbringing by hippie parents. Setting events
in motion, young Placid (Jordan Brooking) is forced onto the playground by his
Mother (Miranda Richardson) wearing a frilly sundress to challenge those
"pre-conceived notions of sexuality". Clever movie, I recommend it. TR:2.0
Raggedy Rawney (1988): Dexter Fletcher plays an
army deserter who ends up in woman's clothes and traveling with a band of
gypsies to escape the army commander. He's in drag for the majority of the
movie, but not a convincing female. The gypsies consider "her" sort of a crazed
good luck charm. TR:3.5
Rat Race (2001): A bunch of high-rollers make a bet to see which of the
randomly-selected teams of casino players can reach a distant locker containing
two million dollars. One of the players, Owen (Cuba Gooding Jr), hijacks a tour
bus full of Lucille Ball impersonators heading to an "I Love Lucy" convention.
One of the Lucy impersonators (Christopher Peterson) is found to be a man...
and he looks really good. There are also some questions as to if the casino
bartender (Carrie Diamond) is a man or a woman. Christopher has a one-man show
called Eyecons where he shows off several of his impersonations. TR:4.5

Raw Deal (1986): Mark (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a policeman who goes
undercover with the mob. He and his mob partner track a man down to a club

at the club. TR:3.8
Ready To Rumble (2000): Two wrestling fans (David Arquette, Scott Caan)
are devasted by the ousting of the favorite wrestler Jimmy King (Oliver Platt)
and vow to help him regain his title. After locating King, they find him hiding
out in a RV park and wearing a wig, red muumuu dress, and pink robe...
definitely laugh drag (if you want to call it that). TR:1.0

Ready To Wear (1994): It will take more than the star-studded cast of
this movie to make it shine. One of the many minor stories involve very short
clips that follow Louise (Teri Garr) shopping for clothes that are way too big
for her. In the last 20 minutes of the movie, we find that she has been
collecting goodies for her crossdressing husband (Danny Aiello) in preparation
for a crossdressing event... where many other crossdressers abound. AKA:
Pret-A-Porter. TR:3.6
Real Men (1986): CIA agent Nick (James Belushi) and insurance agent Bob

transsexual, but played by a woman (Dyanne Thorne). TR:n/a
Reckless + Wild (1994): This star-vehicle for
Claudia Schiffer has two very short scenes with David Shawn Michaels. Here he
plays a drag queen named Sapphire who is friends with fun-loving and wild
Frances (Paget Brewster). Unfortunately, less than a minute total screen time.
AKA: Desperate But Not Serious. TR:3.5
Red Heat (1988): A Russian detective (Arnold
Schwarzeneggar) and a Chicago cop (James Belushi) team up to catch a Russian
drug dealer. The drag scene here is a must-see when one of the meanies (Roger
Callard) dresses up as a female nurse to kill a witness under police protection
at the hospital. TR:4.8

Red Spider (1988): This made-for-tv movie is an adaptation of the book
One Police Plaza. It's about the investigation of murders where each victim has
a spider cut into their stomach. Spoiler: It's eventually found out that the
murderer is a former Special Forces soldier (Philip Casnoff) who was deserted
by his squad and captured to become a sexually-abused POW. He exacts his
revenge, luring each of his former squad members in by dressing as a female
prostitute. TR:2.4

Red Without Blue (2007): Touching documentary about identical twin
brothers Mark and Alex Farley. Alex comes out as transgendered and fully
transitions to Clair, while Mark comes out as gay. Clair is really attractive

Rent (2005):
Rent-A-Cop (1987): Della (Liza Minnelli) gets caught in the middle of a
drug bust at a hotel where she was meeting a trick. When she goes undercover at
a party, her muff (with gun) gets stolen by a transvestite (John Scott Ament).
He doesn't look too bad, unlike the man dressed as Little Red Riding Hood she
meets earlier. The guy who played the transvestite (Scott Ament) actually
contacted me and gave me a little background info: “I was living in
Rome, Italy just after finishing School at Loyola University. I was an actor
and got the job because I was thinnish. The man who dressed me was a Hollywood
old-timer who, among other things had done the costumes for “Rebel
Without a Cause ”. He told me he padded me the same way he padded Natalie
Wood saying “she had a boys’ body.” The transvestites in the
background of that scene were real Italian transvestites who I would often see
at night ‘working’ around the train station.” Thanks for
the info Scott! TR:3.8

Repo Man (1984): Frustrated with his supermarket job, Otto (Emilio

party as one of the four repo wives. TR:1.0(for duration).

Ricochet (1991): Attorney Nick Styles (Denzel Washington) is terrorized
by criminal Earl Blake (John Lithgow), a guy that he put away years ago when he
was a cop. Towards the end, Earl visits a seedy club with a few people in
various stages of drag. The movie also mentions Nick's friend Farris (John
Cothran) was murdered in drag, but I don't think knee-highs count. TR:1.0
Riders Of The Storm (1986): A group of Vietnam vets (led by Dennis
Hopper) disrupts television programs from a B-29 airplane. Due to Mrs.
Westinghouse's (Nigel Pegram) military-leaning political views, they intend to
sabotage her campaign to become the first female president of the United
States... the key to which is exposing her dark secret of being a man! It's a
bizarre movie, but I love the bow blouses and conservative dresses he wears.

Right To Remain Silent (1996): Follows the first day of a rookie cop
(Lea Thompson) as she books varied criminals. There is a little bit of
everything presented here such as euthanasia, drunk driving, AIDS, and racial
discrimination. One of them is a heterosexual crossdresser (Fisher Stevens) who
stole a pair of earrings. He talks about his first dressing experience and how
society discriminates against crossdressers. It's all politically-correct and a
bit melodramatic, but worth a watch. TR:3.5
Ringmaster (1998): Jerry Springer plays himself... the host of a
raunchy, sensationalized talk show. One of the guests is Charlie/Claire
(Maximilliana) who claims himself to be a guy by day and girl by night. Later
that night at a club, he is not recognized in girl mode by one of the shows
staff and they have a little trist in Claire's hotel room. Charlie reveals the
seduction on Jerry's show the next day and proves he is Claire by taking his
hair down from a ponytail and stripping down to red bra and panties!
Maximilliana looks good and has a very natural appearance. TR:4.3
Rip Roarin' Buckaroo (1936): After losing in a fixed fight, Scotty
(Tom Tyler) changes his career to ranch hand. However, his new boss is being
swindled by the same meanies who fixed the fight. Scotty tries to help but gets

to the jail in a dress and hat claiming to be his wife. There's no time to
change before they both run off to the big boxing match to save the day!

Risky Business (1983): Joel's (Tom Cruise) parents leave for a few days
vacation entrusting him to take care of the house. Joel is straight-laced and
worried about his entrance into college, but his friend Miles (Curtis
Armstrong) urges him to have a little fun and calls an escort service. When the escort arrives, it ends up being a man (Bruce Young) in drag. TR:2.6
Ritz, The (1976): Based the Broadway play with many of the actors who
originally created the roles. Hiding from his mobster brother-in-law Carmine
(Jerry Stiller), Geatano (Jack Weston) spends the whole movie hiding in a gay
bath house. Resident Claude (Paul Prices) invites Geatano and Chris (Murray
Abraham) to join him in the talent show as the Andrew Sisters. Just before
them we see a "showgirl" (Tony De Santis) popping his balloons. After they
catch Carmine, they dress him up in Ann-Margret drag that he has to wear to
the police station. Nothing to get excited about though, it's all laugh drag.

River Made To Drown In (1993): Artist/hustler Allen (Michael Imperioli)
deals with his dying friend Thaddeus (Richard Chamberlain) and complications

and Jeffrey Drew). TR:1.5 (for duration)
Road To Rio (1947): The fifth in the Hope-Crosby-Lamour "Road" movies.
Scat (Bing Crosby) and relunctant Barton (Bob Hope) attempt to help Lucia

of a peasant Carmen Miranda for a song and dance routine with Scat. TR:1.6
Robin Hood: Men In Tights (1993): Robin Hood's men Blinkin, Anchoo,

Romance Of Astree & Celadon (2007): The highly improbable (bordering on
silly) romantic French drama between shephard Celadon (Andy Gillet) and
shepherdess Astree (Stephanie Crayencour). Through a misconception, Astree
wishes to never see Celadon and sends him away. Distraught, he flings himself
into the river to be rescued and sequestered by nymphs. Leonide (Cecile Cassel)
dresses Celadon as a girl to escape the nymph castle. Futile tedious efforts
ensue to get Celadon to return to the living, until a Druid convinces him to
dress as a girl to be near Astree. She discovers his ruse after they engage in
passionate lesbian kissing. Yeah, sounds even sillier as I write this! Despite
the lack of padding, he looks pretty good. AKA: Les Amours D'Astree Et De
Celadon. TR:4.0
Rose, The (1979): The tragic life of a self-destructive female rock
star, "The Rose" (Bette Midler). At one point, she returns to a drag club in
which she grew up and singled out by the emcee (Michael Greer). At the end of
his drag act, he removes his tear-away dress to reveal a white tux. He then
announces a special act... a "Rose" impersonator who brings the real Rose up
on stage to sing with her. They are shortly joined by the remaining female
impersonators: Mae West, Barbra Streisand, and Supremes (in no particular
order: Claude Sacha, Michael St.Laurent, Sylvester, Pearl Heart). TR:4.4
Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead (1990): This film comedically
follows the previously untold story of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor
characters in Shakespeare's Hamlet. Throughout the movie we see an acting
troupe, in which two actors play all the female parts. Alfred, the youngest, is
always in female guise and quite pretty... love the shower scene! The other
plays both male and female characters and is usually a queen or in a matronly
role. Great film. TR:4.5
Roy Colt and Winchester Jack (1970): A Western from Italian Horror

Running Out Of Time (1999): Andy Lau plays a thief with only four weeks
