Product Information

Finally, (spoiler), Holly's ill fated romance goes sour when her boyfriend discovers that she is transsexual. This too is dead on accurate. I felt it hit me in the gut... having been there all to often myself. Firstly, we searched a database of archives from major news outlets globally for all instances in which journalists used the phrases "Bob Marley" and "perfect woman" in a single issue between 1945 and 1981 (the duration of Marley's life).

Steffens is a reggae historian and "Bob Marley expert" ( according to The Los Angeles Times) who's interviewed the musician's inner circle for research projects. Norton & Company has not returned our message, but we will update this report if that changes, and whether Steffens provides us with any evidence to help investigate this claim. We found other posts with the same quote. Some also cited Marley, though without any evidence to substantiate whether he actually made the comment, and others circulated the quote without attribution. None of the posts stemmed from reputable media sources, such as published biographies or scholarly articles.I do wish more would have been explained, however, like how was Hollis/Holly's aunt able to live on her own in their house in Hollywood when Hollis was off fighting in a war? She claimed she had to start selling their furniture so she could eat, but how much furniture could she have had really. She does mention she never had a job, so those furniture sells must've gone a long way... a b "THE STARRY WAY". The Courier-Mail. No.3961. Brisbane. 6 August 1949. p.2 . Retrieved 30 August 2017– via National Library of Australia.

Next, we attempted to prove or disprove whether anyone had indeed asked Marley "if the perfect woman existed" before his death in 1981, as well as proof to determine if the post accurately repeated his response to the question. I wouldn't usually admit this, but about midway through this movie, I wandered off to watch some random panel show, to remind myself that comedy, even as a concept, still existed. Such is the dire, dated, dismal experience that is The Perfect Woman. Like the other commenter, I too was put off when I met transsexuals that made the transition later in life, like those in the support group. They came off as phony and only pretending to be a woman than actually having a natural feel for it. As they said in the movie, I don't think they were 'classic transsexuals' but heterosexual transvestites instead. Maybe why they used male actors.
