“I’m just a sweet transvestite, from Transsexual Transylvania”
–Dr. Frank-N-Furter, The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Hollywood has once again proven how they love to play dress up with its actors.
Now it’s with three chauvinistic college guys.
The newest cross-dressing movie, Sorority Boys, follows Dave (Barry Watson), Doofer (Harland Williams) and Adam (Michael Rosenbaum) as they get kicked out of their fraternity and need to find cheap housing fast. Dressing up as girls and pledging the “ugly girl” sorority is just the ticket. Of course, in their less-than-stunning female forms, they begin to realize how hurtful they have been with women over the years and things take a decidedly interesting turn when they walk in their high heels for awhile. Picture Some Like It Hot meets Animal House.
Thus, we’ve decided to take a look at some of the best in cinematic cross dressers and have labeled each according to the special element they bring to gender bending–be it drama queen, girl next door or the perfect gentleman.
