Fun submitted by Zekicmom on August 16, 2017, 10:25pm A movie about an actor who can't get work because he has earned a reputation for being difficult disguises himself as a woman and lands a job as an actress. Great cast, eighties fashion.
Super-dated. Especially the music. submitted by lisa on July 29, 2019, 4:08pm It doesn't age well in some respects, but it sure will give you that 80s feeling, if you want it.
Dustin Hoffman does the drag thing

It was pretty daring when it was made. I’ll bet some people swore off Hoffman’s Movies because of it.
Like a prequel to Mrs Doubtfire.
I agree it doesn’t hold up well. Hoffman played it up with lots of eyeball rolling.
Ok submitted by TLW1998 on June 25, 2022, 10:56pm Good movie where man dresses as a woman to get a job
