This film is based on real events, and I don't know to what extent it restores the truth of the events at that time. Barry Winchell fell in love with transgender Calpernia Addams. At that time, the US military defaulted to the "don't take the initiative to speak, don't take the initiative to ask" policy for homosexuality, but if gays were found, they would be expelled from the military. Barry was slandered and provoked by his peers, and the pressure was doubled by the marching slogans his superiors shouted with insults and threats to homosexuals. The development of the events culminated in the death of Barry at the age of 22 when he was hit in the head with a bat by soldiers in a barracks in 1999.

Troy Garity and Lee Pace play Barry and Cali, respectively. Barry played by Troy is gentle, gentleman, firm, a little childish, attracted by the beautiful and elegant Cali, and fell in love with her deeply. She was the only man he ever loved. Barry wasn't strictly gay. Because Cali totally thinks of herself as a woman, and she loves men because she is a woman. Should gender identification be judged physically or psychologically? Or, about love, should it be limited to gender?

Lee Pace portrayed a transgender man in the form of a daughter and a man with supernatural acting skills. She tilted her head slightly when listening, and unconsciously played with a lock of hair with her hands when she spoke. She stared at Barry with the loving, attentive eyes when she was talking, and when she told her best friend about Barry, she had the coquettish demeanor of a little girl. When I eat potato chips, I pick up a slice and eat it... Many details, including the graceful dance when she comes out in costume at the beginning of the film, the light waist and crotch is full of feminine charm but not color, people will not feel that he is actually him. I am a straight man!

After checking some more information, it seems that Cali cannot be defined as a transgender person. Transgender people are more of those people whose psychological gender does not match their biological gender but do not want to change their biological gender. They think they are neither male nor female. Cali is supposed to be a sexual inversion, and she did have sex reassignment surgery in the end. In short, I can't imagine the torment of their souls in the body every minute and every second, and it's also difficult to imagine that in order to recognize themselves and live in this society unswervingly, in order to get out of the heavier confusion, in order to find a foothold courage and effort. They should be given the respect they deserve.
