Premise: A pre-operative transsexual woman and an adolescent male hustler take a road trip from New York City to Los Angeles after the woman bails him out of jail. The two embark on an unexpected journey, but she fails to divulge her secret...that she is his biological father.
I saw this at its first screening way back in February, so it might have changed somewhat since then - but the film I saw was a disappointigly sitcomish road trip dramedy with a performance from Felicity Huffman that might deserve the term legendary. She makes all the cliches worthwhile.
I have, but wasn't really enthustiastic enough about it, positive nor negative, to bother. Pretty much very indifferent.
well this cover is a total lie

wow, thats amazingly misleading! even moreso than halle berry on the Monsters Ball cover. :bravo:
From thedigitalibits:
By the way, that cover artwork for Genius Product's TransAmerica (due 5/23)? As we've mentioned before, there's actually a lenticular hologram on the front, which "transforms" actress Felicity Huffman into the character she plays in the film. We've had a few people in the last day e-mail us going, "What the hell is Felicity doing on the cover as herself?!" Yeah, we think it's strange too, but there you go. Chalk it up as one of those ideas that probably looked a lot better in the marketing plan...
