This was such a sweet and inspiring film. I'm so glad they used transgender actress (Michelle Henley) instead of using non transgender actresses as they have in the past. As Ricky, Michelle was a joy to watch, as was (Michael Welch) as Robby her best friend since the age of Six. Welch really put his heart into this role and didn't let anything hold him back.All the actors were great and I was emotionally invested in each of them for different reasons.

This story takes place in a small town where everyone knows Ricky is Trans but most everyone treats her with respect. It's basically a love story with a couple of twists and secrets.

I thought the actress who played Ricky was very brave to do a full frontal nude scene as a preoperative transgender woman, it wasn't gratuitous but needed for the scene to be impactive.

There are a lot of dynamics explored, such as, am I gay if I sleep with a pre op transsexual ? Am I straight if, I, as a pre op transsexual,sleep with a woman ? etc. It seems confusing but it is dealt with in a respectful and graceful manner.

It made me weepy in certain spots but sometimes it was an (oh that's so sweet) kind of weepy. As a transgender woman, myself, who had the surgery in 2000, I recommend this film whole heartedly.

EXCELLENT+++++This movie was the most realistic depiction of a transgendered woman played by a very talented transexual woman. The movie was bold and beautiful and I was transfixed on how elegant Michelle was and the director hit a homerun telling this story. I don't think people realize how hard it is to want to be the opposite gender. It's not easy as I have struggled with my own issues centered around something that I should have done a long time ago, but I did not have the guts to deal with it and have stayed in the closet to everyone, but my wife, who accepts me, but she is struggling with me ever being exposed as a cross-dresser, much less, a transsexual. I admire the way it showed how the family and town accepted her and this would be ideal if it was believable, but she made it like is was the card she was dealt with and she seemed to be happy. The love scenes were fantastic and I hope that people see that we are just humans and that our minds and bodies sometimes don't match. This story, like many other pioneers (Christine Jorgenson, Renee Richards, Tula, and now Bruce Jenner) , might give many others a chance to do what their mind is telling them and the Jazz's of the world, the little boys that become girls, because they feel that is the right thing for their body, God, I wished could get a do-over, I would be a girl and I know my Mother would have never accepted me as in my time years ago, I would not have been accepted because it was considered to be a sin and you would be labeled a nut case. We are not nuts, thanks for making this movie to show how that we can be everyday people and just want our normal lives free of hate and bullying and stupidity. Wonderful movie!

An amazingly sweet, touching film with Michelle Hendley as a lovely trans gal in a small, rural town. Read the real reviews and the synopses. My expectations were low when I went to the screening (March 2015 in Bend, OR), but I left having laughed, winced, and wished I had brought a hankie for a scene or two. While a few scenes were a little hokey, the acting was superb. I hope Michelle Hendley goes on to a rewarding career in the film world.
Note on R rating: sex scenes are not explicit. one instance of full nudity. some frank talk about having sex.

Few movies move me as much as Boy Meets Girl did, while also making important social commentary and still managing to be thoroughly entertaining and engaging. The movie had me from the start, from the moment I watched the trailer (about a thousand times) until the very end, which had me in tears for almost the last 15 minutes of the whole movie for every range of emotion imaginable.

Michelle Hendley's performance and her chemistry with Michael Welch throughout the movie and throughout the range of their relationship is all the testament you need to Eric Schaeffer's casting credit and his directorial vision. The rest of the cast is extremely solid, following a group of people you love, hate, and everything in between.

Finally, it's a movie about what will undoubtedly come to be remembered as the defining issue of our time. As trans rights go from a quietly suppressed fight to a near cause célèbre, and as trans people go from the shadows to the spotlight, movies like Boy Meets Girl will define that era in popular culture. From the point of view of a trans woman myself, BMG was exceptionally well done, and succeeded in being a romantic comedy while never losing sight of its responsibility to carefully manage a transgender narrative.

I gave it 5 stars because Amazon doesn't allow me to give it 10! I bought the DVD hoping it would be an OK movie. I was wrong. I can't think of enough superlatives to describe it! To say it impressed me is an understatement. The writing and directing was superb! The actors did a fantastic job! We need more movies like this where characters behave more like real people and leave us feeling happy when the movie ends. Sure, it deals with life and love from an "unconventional" perspective but that is what makes it so great. Life and love are the same for all of us no matter who we are and this movie deals with that in a way that has one laugh, cry and hug yourself all through it. It has great depth, more than the surface issue of the main character. It even has a cool twist about halfway through it. I wouldn't want to spoil it for anyone. You have got to watch this movie!

The acting is superb! The obvious stand-out is Michelle Hendley as she is a newcomer to acting and does an outstanding job. Everyone involved performed so well. Watching the film, one cares for these people and what they do. Some of the dialog is a little explicit regarding acts of intimacy but that only makes it more real. The love scenes are tastfully done and in themselves could be in any PG-13 movie. There is one full frontal nudity scene but it fits the story so smoothly that the story wouldn't work without it.

I fear that many people will shy away from this movie because it involves a transgender woman character and actress but this is a movie for all and I cannot recommend it enough to everyone who likes movies that leave you feeling good with maybe a tear or two in the eyes.
