Dustin hoffman brings the house down... - Tootsie Reviews

[Desperate, he took a female role and became a star. If only he could tell the woman he loves.]....Hilarious movie from beginning to end, thanks including to a great performance from Dustin Hoffman. He would have got the Oscar for this if Ben Kingsley (who got it for Gandhi) was not in contention that year. Did you know that Dustin expressed desire to play the title role in Gandhi that year but was offered Tootsie instead?...
