Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Michael Dorsey is a talented actor but his demanding nature and stubborn temperament have antagonized every producer in New York. Now his agent insists no one will hire him. But Michael needs money - eight thousand dollars to be exact - and to earn it he's willing to play the role of a lifetime. Dustin Hoffman stars with Jessica Lange Teri Garr Dabney Coleman Charles Durning Bill Murray andGeena Davis in director Sydney Pollack's heart-filled classic that heralded a new era of Hollywood wig-flipping and set a new standard for unpredictable laugh-out-loud comedy.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/ROMANTIC COMEDY UPC: 043396191716 Manufacturer No: 19171

Amazon.com:
One of the touchstone movies of the 1980s, Tootsie stars Dustin Hoffman as an out-of-work actor who disguises himself as a dowdy, middle-aged woman to get a part on a hit soap opera. The scheme works, but while he/she keeps up the charade, Hoffman's character comes to see life through the eyes of the opposite sex. The script by Larry Gelbart (with Murray Schisgal) is a winner, and director Sydney Pollack brings taut proficiency to the comedy and sensitivity to the relationship nuances that emerge from Hoffman's drag act. Great supporting work from Teri Garr, Dabney Coleman, Charles Durning, Bill Murray, and pre-stardom Geena Davis. But the film finally belongs to Hoffman, who seems to connect with the character at a very deep and abiding level. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - tootsie review
Dustin Hoffman is hilarious as an actor doing what he needs to do to get the job and the girl.For a few moments you forget he's a he.Sidney Pollack doesnt miss a heart beat in this family type comedy.Definately a movie to watch over and over.Glad its now in my library of best movies.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A tomato doesn't have logic
The special edition of Tootsie is great! The making of - comprised of behind the scenes footage from the film shoot, make up tests, interviews with cast and crew, plus the history of how the film came to fruition - was great. I'm so glad there was an opportunity to conduct interviews with Sydney Pollack before passed away; what an amazing director and all around great guy. The interviews with Dustin Hoffman are also hilarious and insightful.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - There's No Other Woman Like You, You're a Man
Funny lines, terrific acting, great direction. It shows sexism in the '80's--as a woman, I'm so glad I missed all that.

To a fascinating and Oscar award-winning film maker Sydney Pollack (1934-2008). Great work! It still makes us laugh, cry and feel after all these years.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I BEGGED you to get therapy!
I won't repeat what other reviewers wrote, but just add that the scenes between Hoffman and Pollack (as his agent) set a new comic standard for screen arguments...I didn't realize how many good lines I missed the first time....

HOFFMAN: "I DID sleep with her, she STILL thinks I'm gay."

POLLACK: "Oh...not so good, Michael."



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - better than ever
Tootsie never looked better. This has been a favorite in our house since the beginning and this edition is fantastic.
