A review of the Danish girl This film could have gone either way just because you weren’t sure what their relationship was. By doing this to the film was a mystery which made people more interested to watch it. I was keen to know what happened so when I watched it I was amazed of how one story can change dramatically. Some bits were confusing but it all turned around and made sense. I am glad I saw this film because it gives you an inside on how someone’s life can change so much. At first it was a loving film but it stayed like that until the end but there was heartbreak during this film. It also fascinated me of how it’s a true story and you thought everything was going to be good until what happens at the end. Overall, I think this film was an eye opener as you shouldn’t judge someone for being transgender just because they know for a fact they want to be different.

A beautifully understated, naturalistic drama about childhood gender identity confusion that’s both touching and gently humorous.
