Hedwig and the Angry Inch
We aren’t sure if this is the most unique choice on the ballot, but we are convinced there is nobody else like it. From the movie of the same name, we have Hedwig and the Angry Inch, which was fronted by an East German transsexual (John Cameron Mitchell as Hedwig) whose botched gender reassignment surgery left her with an “Angry Inch”, hence the name of her backing band. Musically it was solid, as composer Stephen Trask (who appeared with his own band as the “Angry Inch”) did a great job and the authenticity is certainly there. As this has become a cult film, and is recognized critically as a decent one, do we have a solid candidate here?
