The Crying Game and Breakfast on Pluto were both written and directed by Neil Jordan, who is Irish.

Some other foreign movies:
Menage, aka Tenue de soirée ( Gerard Depardieu doesn't look good in a dress, but Michel Blanc does )
Belle Epoque
A domestic movie:
100 Girls
Let's not forget Norman Bates in "Psycho"
Debbie
Sponge Bob Square pants featured some sort of a crossdressing shrimp near the end and Shrek 2 has an innkeeper with a definite preference for a frock.
The Best Movie Has To Be The Crying Game.
Jaye Davidson Was fantastic!She Was So
Believable And I For One Am Envious.
"Ma Vie En Rose" (My life In Pink) Is about a little boy who thinks that he is supposed to be a little girl. It came out in '97 and was nominated for Golden Globe "Best Foreign Film"

I vaguely recall a movie, perhaps made for television sometime in the 90s.
The plot consisted of a young mtf who wanted badly to attend some sort of girls summer camp and convinced his sister to give him a hand. From what very little I can recall it was reasonably well done.
Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?
There's also a movie called Normal, which I guess is not strictly crossdressing. The guy is transgendered and comes out to his wife and family after 25 years of marriage. Stars Jessica Lange. Worth a viewing for sure.

It's a very complete list of TG/CD related movies.
[SIZE="4"]My wife and I drove to Austin to see "Just Like A Woman" when it was first released. It is a good movie and it was great for my wife to watch it with me. My most vivid memory of that little trip was the ride home however. The movie was just the perfect catalyst for one of our first, in-depth talks about my crossdressing. I talked, and cried, and she listened with sincere interest. It was a watershed event in our relationship. A must see film for any crossdresser and wife or SO. Olivia[/SIZE]
GIRLS!!What about Back to the future 2??Michael J fox plays his own daughter,thought that was cool!
While not about men being dressed as women - the following film was also announced today:
New Line has snagged the comedy pitch None Of Her Business from writing team Cindy and Donald Hewitt. The plot focuses on a corporate executive who is fired, but turns a Tootsie and gets her job back by posing as a man. Hilarity, no doubt ensues. There’s no cast or director attached yet.
With a woman playing the role of a man in "TransAmerica", perhaps I should suggest myself to play a woman dressing as a man in "None of her Business"?

Let's not forget that Canadian comedy show "The Kids in the Hall" I loved the way Dave Foley looked dressed up emfemme on that show. On of Lorne Micheals better efforts compared to SNL.
Dave Foley also went drag in a n episode of newsradio for a Halloween party - convincing. Someone mentioned about an early 1990's moving about a teen in a girls summer camp. I remember a movie about teen trying to get into a private art school. He was trying to avoid a bully (Charlie Sheen) so he went as a girl with his sister's help. However, he had a crush on a girl there and would occasionally go boy to meet up with her. He even joined her onthe cheerleading squad and they went to summer cheer camp. Unfortunetly, the bully who had a crush on him/her was the girlfriends older brother. Very funny movie and i think the star was Cory Haim. The guy from Weekend at Bernies also went to college as a girl as part of a frat challenge. And don't forget Mel Gibson toying with bras, nylons and shaving in "What Women Want"
Ah yes, What Women Want... I'd love to have Mel Gibson's job in that!!!

Freeby and the Bean, the badguy was a great crossdresser.
There a very good guide to TG movies at:

There was also a great film in the 70's with Glenda Jackson and Oliver Reed called Triple Echo were a guy deserts (Brian Deacon) from the Army in WW2 and hides as a women on GJ's farm.
Unfortunately it has been deleted for distribution by the film companies but occassional copies come up for sale on Ebay.
Have just read IMDb and it was also called Solider in Skirts and was based on a book by HE Bates

Girls,
The movie "Rent" IMHO deserves to be in the top-10 list of movies that portray CV/TV/TS characters in sympathetic terms.
"Rent" isn't (exactly) *about* cd-ing, but a major character is Angel, a transgender with an amazing attitude. She is the motivating force of the story, and she makes no excuses or apologies.
Hugs,
Susie
"Before Night Falls" is a great film and Johnny Depp is a CD in that.
And did someone mention "Kiss of the Spider Woman"??? Another great film.

Just when you thought we had run out of films with crossdressing in! I went to see Munich this evening, and in one scene, some guys put on dresses, tights and wigs to be in disguise. I certainly wasn't expecting that one!
