'Disclosure': Laverne Cox's Powerful New Documentary Talks Trans Representation in Hollywood

[letzoespoilyou]

Been watching some very gut punching and important documentaries. I know they can be harsh watches but feel they are also important ones as well.

According to a study from GLAAD, over 80% of Americans don't personally know someone who's transgender. That means most people learn about trans people from the ways they're depicted in movies and TV.

From executive producer Laverne Cox and director Sam Feder comes Disclosure, a documentary that chronicles over 100 years of trans representation on screen, from silent film to Dog Day Afternoon, The 40-Year-Old Virgin to Pose.

beloved movies like

Transgender celebrities and scholars including

Orange Is The New Black’s Laverne Cox

and

Matrix co-director Lana Wachowski,

not only give heartfelt reflections

of the negative portrayal

of Transgender people in Hollywood,

but reflect on how this negative portrayal

can lead to dangerous ramifications

OF ALL TRANSGENDER PEOPLE

and is not only the best documentary I have seen this year

but the most powerful film I have seen in some time!
