If you go to any city in the world there are guys who make a great living out of cross dressing!
That’s not Hugo Weaving. That’s Terence Stamp in the same movie and the same costume :-)
Bernardette… or Ralph! Haha… hilarious movie.
I love the picture of Tim Curry in Rocky Horror Picture Show. A favourite cross-dresser of mine is Eddie Izzard!♥
I’m missing Jamie Farr (Maxwell Q. Klinger from M*A*S*H) in that that list.
I missed Johnny Depp in “Ed Wood”.
And what about “Life of Brian”? Most of the women there are also played by men.
