In Tootsie, Michael Dorsey lands the role of a lifetime - as did the actor playing him, Dustin Hoffman. This multi-layered comedy from Sydney Pollack follows the elaborate deception of a down-on-his-luck New York actor who poses as a woman to get a soap opera gig; while "Dorothy Michaels" skyrockets to fame, Michael finds himself learning to be a better man. Given support by a stellar cast that includes Dabney Coleman, Charles Durning, Teri Garr, George Gaynes, Bill Murray, and, in a breakthrough role, Jessica Lange, Tootsie is a funny, cutting, and poignant film from an American moment defined by shifting social and sexual identities.

"Tootsie" is a classic movie, one of the very best comedies ever made, plain and simple. This is a criterion release, and first of all it is wounderful that Criterion finally are releasing in the UK. This release boosts the best picture quality ever for "Tootsie", and it comes with a welth of wounderful extras. There is not much to say. This is a release from the Criterion collection, and you know you get the best. They are expensive, but totally worth it.
