Silence of the Lambs star Ted Levine says he regrets film’s trans depictions: “Having gotten aware and worked with trans folks, and understanding a bit more about the culture & the meaning of gender… It’s unfortunate that the film vilified that, and it’s fucking wrong. And you can quote me on that.”



Demonizing male gender nonconformity isn’t great either.
Right, they should have focused on demonising the nonconforming super intelligent neurodiverse Eastern European man-eating psychiatrist only. Or perhaps the abusive greedy mental hospital owner. Or the cops who are too stupid to keep a single man locked up. 🤦♂️
