Full of behind the scenes details and intimate interrogations on sex, love, trauma, and Hollywood, Pageboy is the story of a life pushed to the brink. The career that had been an escape out of his reality and into a world of imagination was suddenly a nightmare.Īs he navigated criticism and abuse from some of the most powerful people in Hollywood, a past that snapped at his heels, and a society dead set on forcing him into a binary, Elliot often stayed silent, unsure of what to do, until enough was enough. He was forced to play the part of the glossy young starlet, a role that made his skin crawl, on and off set. His dreams were coming true, but the pressure to perform suffocated him. With Juno's massive success, Elliot became one of the world's most beloved actors. But for Elliot, two steps forward had always come with one step back. Getting closer to his desires, his dreams, himself, without the repression he'd carried for so long. Here he was on the precipice of discovering himself as a queer person, as a trans person. The hot summer air hung heavy around him as he looked at her.
