Myra Breckinridge(1970)Mae West_PARENTE

Having just undergone partial bottom "surgery" is one of the final steps in the complete transformation of Myron Breckinridge (Rex Reed) into Myra Breckinridge (Raquel Welch). Myra, however, cannot and does not want to put Myron totally in her past as being the person who shaped who is she is today. Myra's goal in her new life is to realign the genders largely by breaking down the walls of traditional manhood. Masquerading as Myron's grieving widow, Myra attempts to do so by meeting with her estranged uncle, Buck Loner (John Huston), who operates an acting school. The direct stated outcome of Myra telling him that she feels that she is entitled to half of the valuable Westwood property where the acting school is located is only secondary to her primary mission. She may get some unwitting help in her mission by Casting Director Leticia van Allen (Mae West), who has already broken down many of those walls of manhood all on her own. Myra's plan may be placed into jeopardy if Uncle Buck discovers the truth, he who *knows* that she isn't the widow of that "fag nephew" of his.
