Megaplex 17 Also Pulls Transamerica

Brokeback Mountain was not the only filmed pulled from the offerings of the Megaplex 17 at Jordan Commons. According to a report published on boxofficemojo.com, an agreement to show Transamerica beginning Jan. 20 has also been cancelled by the theater.
      According to a representative at the Megaplex 17, Transamerica had never been on lists maintained by the box office, but the film had been advertised on the theater's website. It was removed from the site over the weekend.
      Calls to the film's distributor have not yet been returned.
      Transamerica is a comedy-drama starring Felicity Huffman as Bree, a pre-operative male-to-female transexual. Huffman has recevied several best actress awards, including at the Tribeca Film Festival, Satellite Awards and National Board of Review. She was also nominated as best actress by the Golden Globes and the Broadcast Critics Association.
