The Christine Jorgensen Story

1970, 98 minutes
A fat hot pink border around a black and white face split in two. The left side has a short haircut and thick eyebrows like a man and the right side has chin-length hair, a barrette, shaped eyebrows, and eye-makeup, like a woman. The ad promises: The first man to become a woman! And the film title "The Christine Jorgensen Story."
