Dustin Hoffman gives an Oscar nominated performance as an unsuccessful actor who poses as a woman to try for a part in a hit TV series. He gets the role and relishes living as a woman but the situation becomes farcical when he falls for a co-star, her Dad falls for ‘him’ and a fellow actor also wants his love.
The stellar cast also include Jessica Lange, Geena Davis, Bill Murray and the film’s director Sydney Pollack. Introduced by Harriet Taylor in partnership with Queer Vision and Switch
