CGiii Comment

This has now been dropped from [any] production slate...due to the [miniscule] outcry from a few vociferous trans*activists...for casting Hollywood A-Lister Scarlett Johansson in the lead trans*role...way to go activists!

Tex Gill's story will - quite probably - never be told...way to go activists!

And...quite possibly [and quite rightly], major studios will think twice about producing trans*stories.

If you extrapolate on this [misguided] stance...no films will ever be made. Think about it...should a [straight] woman not write about a gay love affair between two cowboys?!? Should two straight actors not play two gay cowboys? There goes Brokeback Mountain!!!

Way to go activists!


No trailer...
