Boys_Dont_Cry

Boys Dont Cry The film, Boys Don't Cry, is based on a true story and raises numerous real-world issues in its story of a murder case in middle America in which the victim was a girl who successfully passed herself off as a boy. The film delves into gender issues, questions of identity, and the ethics of interpersonal relationships. First, the viewer asks why so many people were fooled for such a long time by this masquerade. Second, the viewer wants to understand why this girl undertook the deception in the first place. Third, the viewer will ask another important question about what it is about gender that could generate such anger and hatred to cause young people to commit murder. The film dramatizes these issues so that even if we do not get complete answers to our questions, we do believe that the characters were also tormented by these questions and acted from deep-seated fears, obsessions, desires, and anger. All of this unfolds in a context that analyzes how we identify gender and how we differentiate between the masculine and the feminine.
