We'll probably see it. The complaint I have heard is that while two trans women were the leaders of the uprising, credit in the film goes to "a pretty white boy".
Perhaps a little bit "Hollywood" but from what I've read, the movie does justice to history and those who were actually a part of it. I will definitely see it and I think the "boycott" which is based on the trailer, is ill conceived and reactionary. Some people are too quick to be critical of things they haven't bothered to fully research.

I like "pretty white boys" all right, but I hope the movie is historically accurate and not just a vanity piece.
