Description
Cross-dressing comedies were a Hollywood staple for countless decades, from Some Like it Hot to Mrs. Doubtfire - and many, for obvious reasons, have become pretty cringeworthy watches in modern times. But MG argues that Sydney Pollack's classic 1982 comedy Tootsie, starring Dustin Hoffman as Dorothy Micheals - while still 80's-dated in many ways - actually remains a powerfully empathic work of great depth and humanism - while still delivering on its slapstick conceit!
