In honor of the release of her new film, THE SERPENT'S SKIN late this month, I am re-upping this piece I wrote on the films of Alice Maio Mackay, and why her unique brand of trans horror feels so hopeful in world that often feels so dark.
Claude Lelouch's classic romance A MAN AND A WOMAN (1966) arrives on Blu-Ray from @criterion.bsky.social on March 31!
lol yes they are
Review | WHAT DOES THAT NATURE SAY TO YOU - "In vino, veritas, as the saying goes, and in Hong’s profound, altogether lovely film, arriving at the truth is only the beginning."
Now playing from @cinemaguild.com!
Apparently @weard.moe is too hot for BlueSky.
Many of you have asked, and here it is! A @letterboxd.social list of the full Trans Canon, all 300 listed movies by our all-trans and non-binary panel.

I'd have loved to have you! I pushed the call for ballots for a month or so but a lot of folks still missed it. This has gotten such a good response though I'd love to do it again sometime in a year or so with a bigger, more diverse pool of folks.
We gave you two, TWO Lynches! 😋
I thought the same thing. But I like surprises! NASHVILLE ranking so high was another nice surprise that I wouldn't have predicted.
I did not expect two Lynches to make the top 10 but in hindsight I totally should have.
Fascinating list. I didn't participate, but there would have been some overlap in my own choices if I had. Shout out to Laura Palmer the patron saint of trans women with a film problem
Huge shout out to Mattie for putting this together. Genuinely fascinating to see what ten films ended up topping the list, but I mostly adore the sheer variety of picks in the individual lists.
Curious what I voted for? Here's my ballot!
Incredible things are happening over at X the everything app
I know everyone is floored
SPEED RACER was 1 point away from the top 10!
I'd love to do an expanded version in the future. I had a call out for submissions for about a month or so, but now that the list is out there and has eyes on it I may be able to get a bigger sample for a future poll.
A huge shout-out to everyone who voted in the poll, & a special thanks to the writers: @weard.moe, @esmesays.bsky.social, @adequateemily.bsky.social, @staticbluebat.bsky.social, @fuchsiadyke.bsky.social, @jaclynpmoore.bsky.social, @ryangaysling.bsky.social, @aprespompeii.bsky.social, & Becca Violet.
The Greatest Films of All Time (According to Trans People)!
I polled more than 40 transgender and non-binary filmmakers, film critics, and cinephiles to find out which films trans folks connected to most. Check it out below!

Tomorrow...
The storytelling in this season of #DragRace feels more forced than usual. It feels like production is trying to gaslight us about the quality of certain performances to justify their manipulation.
Grey BTC @greybtc•1m Dubai has missiles flying above it but is still safer than Paris, London, California, Sweden, Canada.
This, friends, is what we call cope.
Review | WUTHERING HEIGHTS - "A garish and frankly quite dull attempt to breathe new life into a classic story that instead saps it of the energy that made it interesting and relevant in the first place."
I need to step it up over here. #lastfourwatched
"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot"
HELL. YES.
Good choices! I've alway had a soft spot for STANLY & IRIS.
Glad someone mentioned EIGER SANCTION! It's a lot of fun.
One that I'm surprised no one has mentioned is JANE EYRE, a TV movie from 1970 that Williams scored before he became a household name with JAWS, and I think it's still one of his loveliest dramatic works.
1941 is a fun one!
No Spielbergs might be too harsh, I considered AI (which I think is one of Williams' greatest works) and MUNICH, but I really want to know your favorite deep cuts.
