Transamerica (Widescreen Edition) Summary Emmy® Winner Felicity Huffman (desperate Housewives) Won The Best Actress (drama) Golden Globe® Award For Her "fiercely Funny And Deeply Powerful" Performance (pete Hammond, Maxim) That Is "thrilling To Watch." (a.o. Scott, The New York Times) Huffman Plays Bree Osbourne, A Conservative Transsexual Woman, Who Learns She Is The Parent Of A Long-lost 17-year-old Son (kevin Zegers). The Wheels Of Fortune Take Bree And Son On A Cross-country Adventure, Including A Memorable Visit With Bree’s Parents, That Will Change Both Of Their Lives. A Funny, Touching, Completely Original Look At The Modern American Family, "transamerica Will Leave You In A State Of Movie Euphoria. It’s Hilarious And Deeply Affecting." (joe Morgenstern, The Wall Street Journal. "felicity Huffman Is Incredible. One Of The Year’s Most Unforgettable Performances." -stephen Mooallem, Interview

Felicity Huffman deserves every award she's received for her outstanding performance in Transamerica, a small but rich movie about Bree--formerly Stanley--a pre-operative male-to-female transexual awaiting gender-reassignment surgery who learns she has a wayward teenage son named Toby. When her therapist (Elizabeth Peña, Jacob's Ladder) strongarms Bree into facing her past, she bails Toby (Kevin Zegers, Dawn of the Dead) out of jail and they end up on a road trip across the country. Such a premise could feel forced, but the script and performances make it persuasive and natural. Bree wrestles with discomfort and compassion as she learns about Toby's own troubles, even while her own grow worse when she's forced to ask for help from her hostile parents (the superb Fionnula Flanagan, The Others, and Burt Young, Rocky). Transamerica doesn't push for any great catharsis, but instead slowly peels away the layers of Bree's defenses, laying bare her basic struggle for respect and a chance at happiness. In many ways it's a showy role, but Huffman (Desperate Housewives) keeps her acting simple, direct, and thoroughly compelling. --Bret Fetzer
