I finally got to watch I saw the tv glow - I knew I had wanted to watch it and every trans person with good taste in movies (including here) said to watch it. I did like it, but I wish I had been warned that
spoiler for the tone of the movie and heavy stuff (I'll say tone was not happy cause I wished someone had told me)
It's a downer and Isabel/Owen doesn't figure out that her life is a lie, even though this life that was supposedly rooted in logic includes Owen being able to support himself from... restocking balls in a ball pit??? Or that his manager never aged a day in 30 years??I was able to trans my gender in our irl Midnight Realm so for me, I couldn't really relate as much to the inability to take that leap - it was just when I had cracked my egg, I only had one direction - no choice to go back to boy mode; because it was transition or suicide, for me. I mean, I'm certainly sympathetic. I can understand it as a survival method. I just can't relate on a personal level, that's all I'm saying.
In a TV show like The Pink Opaque, Isabel would have escaped on her own right at the last minute in a double episode length season premiere. So I imagine the reason it ended on that cliffhanger is that we didn't get to see her finally claw her wat out.
I made the choice not to watch it cuz I don’t need anymore psychic damage
Yeah I'm kind of over trans tragedy. Give me trans wrath like in Monkey Man or trans joy, trans liberation
Real as fuck, ngl I was sort of disappointed when I heard TV Glow was a closeted suffering fest. Feels quaint, Idk. I still wobble back and forth on whether or not to watch it.
Also I just looked up Monkey Man and
ayo?
I know! It's so good. They kill the BJP people. Dev Patel figures out his revenge story goes so much deeper and he's ready to take on this web of oppression. Also, Dev Patel gets shirtless and he's built and all the trans women (including me in the audience) react appropriately lol.
