"""A sorely-needed and comprehensive audit of twentieth-century trans film history... a deeply engrossing, thoughtful, and often recuperative examination of transness in film."" - Daniel Lavery, author of Something That May Shock and Discredit You ""A thoughtful, revelatory, and rewarding read from two of the most essential critics working today."" - Ashley Clark, Curatorial Director, Criterion Collection ""As timely as it is vigorous, brave, and intelligent... Gardner and Maclay have written one of the most important - and exciting - works of long-form film criticism of this century thus far."" - Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, author of 1,000 Women in Horror: 1895-2018 ""Gardner and Maclay reach into the guts of the trans film image, into the disreputable world of mondo movies, into unfortunate prestige pictures and forgotten radical Cinéma vérité and bring all of it to a present moment teeming with possibilities. This is an untold history treated with wit and intelligence and a humane, searching tone."" - Scout Tafoya, director of Enjoy Your Trip to Hell and House of Little Deaths ""A superb work of film history... lively and thoroughly researched, a treasury of astute film criticism, and a portrayal of the highways and byways of trans (legal; medical; political) that is both engaged and dispassionate. A definitive treatment of the subject."" - Molly Haskell, author of From Reverence to Rape: The Treatment of Women in the Movies"
