Product Description

From Doris "Queen of Exploitation" Wishman comes LET ME DIE A WOMAN, one of the most jaw-dropping and unclassifiable films ever to ooze forth from the Seventies grindhouse. A stunning sleaze-umentary on the medical condition known as gender dysphoria, this doco-style sleaze-fest includes unabridged interviews with post-ops, bull dykes and drag queens, probing anatomical examinations, and real medical stock footage from an actual sex change operation! It's enough to make you want to put on an iron jock strap!

New Lover II

Very interesting Documentary

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 9, 2011

Verified Purchase

This movie was interesting. It's not what I thought it would be but it was interesting none the less. The movie was a little older than I would have liked but it was very indepth in changing from one gender to the othere. If you want to know about going from man to woman this is for you and wanted to see how a man penis is removed and a new vagina is made this is for you also.

This review is mostly for the DVD commentary

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 10, 2019

Since others have already reviewed this film I thought I would talk about the commentary on the DVD instead with the transsexual star, Leslie, and historian Michael Bowen. One thing that Leslie mentions throughout is she would've never agreed to appear in the film if she knew it was going to be a semi-porno feature. Apparently the sex scenes were filmed some years before she filmed her scenes that were supposed to be for a movie called 'Adam or Eve.' In fact one scene was for a heterosexual porno film with famous porn actor Harry Reems and another actress, but in 'Let Me Die a Woman' it was told that the actress was a post-op transsexual (she wasn't. She was a genetic woman) who had sex too quickly after surgery and ruptured her newly constructed vagina.

I was a bit curious how Leslie got the money to transition and have the surgery (which she said she had in Jackson Heights, New York for $4,000.), but she never says only that she became a makeup artist for Peter Jennings of ABC News after the film was released. Someone on the film was a makeup artist as well and that's how she got the gig. It was a little humorous how she said she would've never been in a therapy group they had in the film which showed several non-passable male-to-female transsexuals. I actually attended a group like that in Galveston, Texas many years ago, so I know the feeling. I never went back.

The film had both male-to-female transsexuals and female-to-male and one, a middle-aged male, that appeared to be an autogyenpile transgender that ended up hanging himself. They presented his scene as if changing his gender was more a sexual fetish/interest for him and he eventually took a girlfriend after having a breakdown. There wasn't a name for it back then, I guess.

I do suspect this film was released to cash in on the fame of tennis player, and transsexual, Renee Richards since it came out during her time in the news. 'Let Me Die a Woman' is an interesting film to see, but I also understand the negative reviews it got as well.

Weird film for sure!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 5, 2009

Let Me Die a Woman is pure grindhouse trash about transexuality. It pretends to be a documentary but is really just exploitative like Mondo Cane. It is also hilarious trash! Not for everyone though and quite gross at times.

Fun, Fearless, Fabulous and Gross!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2016

Well let me start off by saying...high art it ain't! Firstly ..I do not know why this film was made. I don't know if it was to promote Dr. Wollman's practice, bring general awareness to the publuc about Transgender people, or just blatantly exploit them like sideshow freaks.

Leslie, the main Trans woman in the film is fabulous. She's beautiful, determined and profound. She came basically from nothing in Puerto Rico, and explains in detail what it was like growing up with her feelings, and even about her contemplation of suicide. I had to admire the tenacity of the woman, because she accomplished what she set out to do.

Other parts of the film are quite gross and graphic. Stock footage of vaginas being constructed, the doctor examing Transgender vaginas, simulated sex scenes, and a whole lot more lol.

The one thing positive I can say about this film is that it may assist someone should they be struggling with this. They can see all the ups and downs in transitioning. It may be overdramatic at times and even camp, but I think their intentions were in the right place even though they exploited these women.

You know what they say...You can't be exploited unless YOU allow it. I mean no one is forcing any of those women to be on The Real Housewivess shows.

Just be warned...this film can be quite graphic at times. I do not recommend it for ANYONE under 18.

Exploitation At It's Grittiest!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 24, 2015

This is nothing but an exploitation movie about transsexuals narrated by a "specialist in the field" (Dr Leo Wollman) with a large portion of dialoge coming from a very passable and pretty transsexual named (Leslie). Most of the other people under going (sex change therapy) "as it was called back then" are unconvincing as the opposite sex save a couple.

It's almost a porno film ,even porn star (Harry Reems) of Deep Throat fame is in it ,as they reinact how a trans woman has sex too soon and he leaves her in a small pool of blood after intercourse. They actually show a full sex change surgery blow by blow. Then show the results weeks after with her spread eagle! I must say they have certainly come along way in the surgery department! Now with the new technology the vagina is aesthetically pleasing and one would never know it was created and not genetic.

But this film is just for shock value although most of the information as to the mindset of transgender individuals is accurate. Not for the squeamish or closed minded.
