Product Description
Product Description
Dustin Hoffman shines as a struggling actor who becomes a TV star and finds true love - by dressing as a woman!
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

- Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2024This is a classic, one of Dustin Hoffman’s greatest performances. He’s an out of work actor trying to find work and goes on an audition pretending to be a woman and gets the job! Lots of funny plot twists. Great entertainment for ages 13 and above.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2024Great Entertainment, Very Funny, Great Acting. Watched it a few times already!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024What's not to love about Tootsie - I laugh just thinking about the character. We need more family-centered movies.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2024I love this movie, it's funny and heartwarming and it's well worth watching.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2023I'll be honest, this was my first time viewing Tootsie. I had avoided it for many years thinking I would not like it. But recently in talking to someone they encouraged me to take a look, so I did. It does feel dated. The pacing, the theme, the approach, and of course the clothing and such you are going to "feel." So if you're uncomfortable with ways women were treated in the 80s, skip this one.
But in the end, that is the subject Tootsie takes on: how men treated and viewed women in the 80s. Having it reflected to a man (Michael/Tootsie/Dustin Hoffman), you see those things, you feel for women, and you come away seeing how he becomes a better man. Tootsie does drag a bit at first - the 80s pacing - but as it comes around and Michael begins to live in Tootsie's world, things pick up. So in the end it is an entertaining piece with a message that plays well here. Glad I finally tried it out.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2024Good humor comedy great movie, never get tired of it.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2024Bright back good memories from this movie. Ordering was easy and shipping was perfect as usual.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2013Like Billy Wilder’s Some Like It Hot (1959), Sydney Pollack's Tootsie (1982) uses the ‘fish out of water’ patina of a man in drag merely as its crutch rather than making it the crux of the story. Therein lays the strength of the movie: also in Dustin Hoffman’s monumental performance – playing it ‘straight’ as it were - as the guy who reaffirms his own manhood by getting in touch with his feminine side. Tootsie is so rife with moments of sheer comedic brilliance it catches the viewer almost by surprise.
Oh sure, we’re expecting a comedy. But the origin of our laughs is discovered in more unlikely places than under the wig and girdle. What is quite miraculous about Tootsie – especially for someone who has seen the movie now more than twenty times – is Hoffman’s ability to so completely immerse us in his character and his alter ego that somewhere along the way we can still forget this is Hoffman playing a part. George Masters’ impressive makeup can only go so far. The rest of the assimilation from man into woman comes entirely from within Hoffman’s ability to get inside Dorothy Michaels; to transfer the best elements of his presence as a star and as an actor into this curious ‘looking glass’ sense of self re-conceptualized as an unattractive female that most men would find threatening to their own fragile impressions of masculinity.
Indeed, Tootsie aims at loftier ambitions; its social critique of men judging women as sex objects fueled by Hoffman’s inspiring and proactive ‘take charge’ gal with an agenda. At increments the screenplay touches upon issues of gender inequality, mixed messages emanating between the sexes, a near rape situation, transgender confusion and transsexualism; hardly expected fodder from a frothy romantic/comedy. Some thirty plus years after its debut, Tootsie’s social critique remains fresh and as plainly astute as ever. It really is difficult to critique a film as well-rounded as Tootsie. It's as real and as perfect as movies get; an embarrassment of riches: heart, class and something meaningful to say. Comedies tend to date. But Tootsie remains the gold star standard bearer by which most any other before or since can be judged.
Sony Home Entertainment continues its rather frustrating trend of releasing some of its finest movies in hi-def only overseas. The Blu-ray marginally bests Sony’s North American 25th Anniversary on DVD but it’s hardly perfect and that’s a shame. At some level, the 1080p transfer is at the mercy of less than stellar existing elements. The color, processed at MGM’s labs, falters throughout this presentation. While some scenes look remarkably vibrant and exhibit very fine tonality, contrast and a good solid smattering of film grain, others appear with wan colors, heavy grain and even a visible age-related artifact or two. Montages suffer from weak contrast brought on by inferior optical printing methods back then. Sony could have gone back to the drawing board and spent its money correctly on cleaning up and stabilizing these sequences so that they more seamlessly blend with the rest of the movie. They haven’t and frankly, it stinks! The 5.1 DTS audio is a vast improvement over the Dolby Digital tracks on the 25th Anniversary DVD. Occasionally, however, dialogue sounds ever so slightly muffled.
Sony’s import jettisons its 25th anniversary DVD audio commentary but retains the ‘making of’ documentary that offers some fascinating insight from Hoffman and other principle cast and crew. If you don’t already own Tootsie then this Blu-ray is the way to go. It’s not a reference quality disc, but the movie alone comes very highly recommended. Tootsie is a seminal comedy to be enjoyed and reviewed over and over again.

ZedReviewed in Canada on June 15, 20245.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Dustin Hoffman at his best, acting the life of an actor--
This 25th Anniversary edition of Tootsie is excellent for its extras, cast interviews, and the featurette film The Making of Tootsie. If you thought you loved this movie, you cannot miss this edition for the extras alone. Released in 1982, this comedy is a film still current showcasingrelationships between men and women, and the feminist struggle in a man's world. Micheal Dorsey, an out of work actor auditions as a woman for a female role on a soap opera in order to raise money to produce a play for himself and his out of work actor friends. A dedicated and serious actor, Micheal embraces the role of Dorothy Micheals, his alter ego, a role he views as the greatest of his life, convincing everyone around him he is a woman, with the exception of his room mate Jeff played by Bill Murray. Micheal Dorsey/Dorothy Micheals is cast as the new femaie hospital administrator at Southwest General. Micheal Dorsey discovers playing a woman makes him a better man as he experiences what life is like for a woman professionally, romantically, socially, even when fighting for a cab.The stellar cast includes Bill Murray, Dabney Coleman, Terri Garr, Jessica Lange, Geena Davis, Charles Durning and a brilliant performance by Sydney Pollack who also directed the film. Pollack's role as Micheal Dorsey's frustrated and much berated professional agent tries to explain to Micheal that his dedication to his own ideas of acting integrity have made it impossible for him to get him any more casting calls. His agent (Pollack) simply states: 'Doesn't matter which coast, no one will hire you'. Enter Dorothy Micheals...

サンライズ・サンセットReviewed in Japan on October 27, 20245.0 out of 5 stars ロマンチック・コメディの傑作★
1982年の作品で、当時とても話題になりました★
70年代後半から80年代は、ロマンチック・コメディの豊作?で、
シドニー・ポラック監督も、初めてのコメディ映画でしたが・・・
素晴らしい脚本もあり、やりすぎないコミカルさと、ハートフルな演出で
とても心地いい作品だと思います★
また、デイブ・グルーシンの軽快なスコアが冴えていて♪・・・
何と言っても、スティーブン・ビショップが優しく歌う、大ヒットした主題歌、
邦題「君に想いを」♪が、劇中と、ジーンとくるラストからの、
エンド・クレジットに流れて・・・最高です!
