Reviews

New Yorker

Pauline Kael

[Tootsie] has what the best screwball comedies had: a Can-you-top-this? quality.

There are brains behind the film which allow it to be funny and provocative in its observations on gender roles and women’s equality.

It all comes together with some sensationally dry humor - the kind of comedy that feels natural, realistic, and spontaneous.

[Hoffman gives] a remarkable dual performance, as profound as it is funny.

Tootsie (1982) is an engaging, original, hilarious gender-comedy story of an unemployed actor Michael Dorsey (Dustin Hoffman) whose disguises as a feminist named "Dorothy" fooled his/her co-actors and helped him get a job and become a female star
