The Brandon Teena Story

A film review by Christopher Null - Copyright © 1999 Filmcritic.com

So-so documentary about the slaying of a woman who passed herself off as a man. Unfortunately, there's absolutely no mystery here -- it's pretty obvious who did the deed from the get-go. If Teena hadn't been a transsexual, this would have been Just Another Crime...

Crummy production values. Even misspellings in the title cards.
