The only reason I’m not giving a five stars is that I’m doing gender studies now and this film feels no more and no less than an average lecture I have. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry. It makes me happy, it makes me sad. It inspires me. And it has a specific historical context. The discussion is only applicable to a specific social formation. And I’m not rating my lectures.
和《窈窕淑男》相比，同为1980年代的变装喜剧的此片名气小得多。其实两部影片都很好看，喜剧性极强，难分伯仲。
两部电影有一些共同点：都发生在演艺圈，主人公都走投无路，并且都通过变装，走向人生巅峰。最后都选择结束伪装，做回真正的自己。第55届奥斯卡金像奖，两部作品都获得数项提名（《窈窕淑男》9项；《雌雄莫辨》6项），但都只获得了一个不太重要的奖项（《窈窕淑男》给了最佳女配；《雌雄莫辨》是最佳歌曲）。
Hollywood mainstream cinema’s dichotomic gender conventions are rambunctiously breached in 1982, Sydney Pollack’s TOOTSIE has a bruised male ego get a fresh start by purporting to be the opposite sex, and Blake Edwards’ VICTOR VICTORIA is the obverse, a woman in drag, pretending to be a man who pretends to be a woman.
