Victor/Victoria

Dir. Blake Edwards

US 1982 | Colour | 134 mins | Hollywood Classics | Musical

Originally filmed as the Weimar musical Viktor und Viktoria, then as the Jessie Matthews vehicle First A Girl, Edwards’ entry in the woman-who-pretends-to-be-a-man-who-pretends-to-be-a-woman genre is a great blend of Clouseauesque farce, romantic comedy and showstopping musical numbers by Henry Mancini and Leslie Briccuse. ‘Don’t miss this one. It sends sparks.’ - Time Out
