split second movie review
20/4/06 22:06She's a Man: Cute and quite a lot of fun, but really astonishingly degayed for something based on Twelfth Night. I would not have guessed it was possible to that extent! Also, before this movie I was under the impression that I disliked Amanda Bynes, but she was actually quite appealling.
General question: why is it that girls in drag in movies and TV, often in serious and life-altering situations, always choose to keep their hair long and wear a wig over it? I realize the dramatic wig removal and display of feminine locks is very impressive looking, but it still seems stupid. It makes more sense here than in the television episode I saw it in a few weeks ago, though, where it was a situation where the chick was going to be killed or lose her job if they found out she wasn't a boy.
