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."

Right? I actually find it really pandering when a marginalized group is consistently depicted as infallible. They stop being characters and become stand-in caricatures.

Obviously, its a worse issue when it happens the other way around.
