Cynthia Lennon being in the back ground when The Beatles became famous. Unfortunately as part of life, death came to her in Spain and she passed away for Cancer. She never had her just deserts in this lifetime. The way Lennon and later his estate (Yoko) treated her and Julian was (is) an absolute disgrace according to many tabloids in that time but now she rests in peace.
Polemic Journey in “52 Tuesdays”

Transgender person’s journey is not easy especially when sexual orientation subject matters with unusual grace. During 1 hr. 54 min. This awesome Australian production begins with Sixteen-year-old Billie’s reluctant path to independence is accelerated when her mother reveals plans for gender transition and their time together becomes limited to Tuesday afternoons. Filmed over the course of a year, once a week, every week (only on Tuesdays) these unique filmmaking rules bring a rare authenticity to this emotionally charged story of desire, responsibility and transformation. Directed by Sophie Hyde. Screenplay, Matthew Cormack; story, Cormack, Hyde. Camera (color, widescreen, HD), Bryan Mason; editor, Mason; music, Benjamin Speed; music supervisor, Debra Liang; production designer, Hyde; sound, Leigh Kenyon, Josh Williams, Dane Hirsinger, Will Sheridan; re-recording mixer, Pete Smith.
Despite the ending of 52 Tuesdays is really kind of a controversy. This isn’t only because it shifts its focus so completely onto Billie as to scuttle much of the emotional interlacing that Hyde had been working on for so much of the film. It also swerves the film off-course into preposterousness. However, is an urban drama very well structured with all the characters personalities, dress, and appearance, suffering with the hormonal treatment (very painfully) change and develop over a year, in real time. Definitely is a subject to think as a society.
