The Crying Game (1992)
An unlikely kind of friendship develops between Fergus, an Irish Republican Army volunteer, and Jody, a kidnapped British soldier lured into an IRA trap by Jude, another IRA member. When the hostage-taking ends up going horribly wrong, Fergus escapes and heads to London, where he seeks out Jody's lover, a hairdresser named Dil. Fergus adopts the name "Jimmy" and gets a job as a day laborer. He also starts seeing Dil, who knows nothing about Fergus' IRA background. But there are some things about Dil that Fergus doesn't know, either... (imdb)

Look, I know this came out in a very different time, but transphobia is just so deeply baked into this narrative that I find myself utterly unable to separate that aspect from the actual craft of the film. The cinematography and acting are outstanding throughout, but even beyond the issues with Dil as a character playing into the stereotypical “trans women as deceivers” plot, her forced detransition at the hands of Rea's character had me actively rooting for her to kill him at the end.

Beginning to think Neil Jordan only has one movie he makes over and over again. The plot progression makes sense from point to point but feels disjointed overall (cf. Mona Lisa), and on top of that, there are of course the two enormous landmines politically. I think a case could be made that the generally sympathetic trans portrayal is ahead of its time for 1992, but the IRA depiction is completely indefensible.
