LGBTQ* Intersex Documentaries You Should Keep On Your Radar
INTERSEXION
(Following text from the documentary’s website:)
The first question any new parent asks… “Is it a boy or a girl?”
What if it’s neither?1 in 2,000 babies is born with genitalia so ambiguous that the doctors cannot easily answer this question.
In this groundbreaking documentary, intersex individuals reveal the secrets of their unconventional lives – and how they have navigated their way through this strictly male/female world, when they fit somewhere in between.

Photoset reblogged from I'll Be Happy When I'm Dead with 3 notes
Two collaborations between Lillian Gish and D.W. Griffith.
339. D.W. Griffith’s The Birth of a Nation: That first half (Pre-Civil War America) is incredibly well done with some superb battle sequences, but everyone forgets it due to the second half (Reconstruction) where white actors in blackface take over congress and eat fried chicken and drink malt liquor, a white woman sees a white man in blackface and jumps off a mountain and dies, and the KKK saves the day. One of the most controversial films ever made, this might be the most historically important with films now being taken seriously as feature length pieces of art.
340. D.W. Griffith’s Way Down East: One of the stops on the apology tour for The Birth of a Nation, D.W. gives us a melodrama that is one of film’s earliest feminist tales, and it is quite excellent with a fabulous leading performance from Gish.
