Glen or Glenda

The film follows a psychiatrist as he shares the tales of a transvestite, Glen or Glenda, and a pseudohermaphrodite, Alan or Anne, exploring their complex identities and struggles.

The 1953 film "Glen or Glenda" presents two interconnected stories. Glen, a man who secretly dresses as a woman, struggles to reveal his true identity to his fiancée Barbara, while Alan, a pseudohermaphrodite, undergoes a painful operation to become a woman. The film features multiple narrators, including Dr. Alton, who delivers a lecture on tolerance, and the enigmatic Scientist, whose commentary is filled with philosophical musings.

Warren, Johnny, Barbara, and even Satan, who appears in Glen's nightmare.
