Oddball quirky comedy
I thought this was actually quite a funny movie. I didn't realise the states had people who sat home all day on benefits...but was genuinely funny. Brief and different. Not sure what people expect....for some reason I just kept thinking of Napoleon dynamite. Had that feel to it
Quirky comedy
The male playing a female thing I didn't get at first. By the end you kind of forget about it as it really is irrelevant. I'm glad I didn't let the reviews put me off.
Although not a belly- laugh type of comedy, it has a good mix of funny, poignant and philosophical elements. There isn't much of a story, but again, the point of the film is Susan's journey and growth as a person.
I recommend if you like quirky & unusual films with an interesting message.

Quirky Sense
I understand the premise way too well. Unmotivated, unrealistic expectations for yourself, and then reality kicks in and it too late to fix the lost years that got away. Has its funny moments but the script was lacking, a little in backstory, as to the how she ended up with such a dreadful, meaningless life.
He's A Man Playing A Woman!!!
It took me a while to figure out that Sean wasn't playing a trans person but just playing a woman. Not unheard of for someone to play another gender, but it did take a while. That said after I got it straight I settled in and rolled with it and it was pretty funny. Many wonderful actors and a quirky vibe all its own.
Great Movie
Loved this movie. It's very funny and takes you into Susan world. Pure escapism to a very simple place. It's also acted very well. Bring in part 2.
Did you know
- TriviaA transgender person is someone who identifies as a gender other than the one assigned to them at birth. A cisgender person is someone who identifies as the gender that was assigned to them at birth. A drag queen, or 'doing drag', is simply someone dressing up as a gender other than the one they identify as, but has nothing to do with their personal gender identity.
People have a difficult time understanding these concepts, Often times people assume that if a cisgender actor is portraying a different gender than the one they are in real life they are automatically either playing a drag queen or a transgender person. Because of this the film's producers went out of their way in press releases and promotion to clarify that the character of Susan is a cisgender woman who happens to be portrayed by a cisgender man.
