Antonia San Juan (Agrado)


I must confess, I still don't know whether the actress who played Agrado was just an ugly woman with a hideous voice or the real deal.

I think I read somewhere that Almodovar did cast an actual transvestite for the role...

i must say, that agrado "made my day"
or made the movie? nah, movie is cool but agrado is "piece de résistance" or the cherry on cream :))))

I allways thought she was a transexual. I just looked in Google and could only find an interview where she avoids the question:

She's that ugly but she doesn't dress and combs as in the film. She's always been a woman.

I saw this week the film PIEDRAS ("The stones"?) with Antonia San Juan, it's also nice movie and ASJ looked as a woman, even I was very convienced after "All about..." that she is a transsexual.

I've never seen that movie, but i think Antonia San Juan is transsexual, she's awesome though she could turn into whatever she wants, she's great :)
