"I used to be a boy named Stonie," says Brittany Coxxx, lolling on the couch of her therapist, Christian. Thus begins a tranny film with a real hook, as Stonie was also a porn star. Brittany can thus tell her story to the good doctor in pictures culled from her former self's movies. Forget if you like transsexual porn or not—what would it be like to watch a porn flick that took years to make rather than hours?
"It sounds like Stonie had some fun in the military," remarks Christian, egging on the newly Ms. Coxxx.
"Well, it wasn't all fun," recalls Coxxx, looking up and to the left (where dwells Memory), "especially when he was a junior cadet."
Thus we revisit Stonie's adventures in the military while Brittany phones other transgendered friends from her therapist's office. We accept this because she's sassy.
Though the stunt of having Coxxx' old and new selves in the movie is a coup, the movie throws away this narrative windfall on a script that is otherwise Porno Standard. It's no "Borat."
We should have expected it when Coxxx first walked in and her therapist said, "So what can I do for you today?"
Still, while we don't see how or why Stonie transformed, this movie trumps others in that it shows that she transformed.
"Brittany's Transformation" will be available this month.
