When Michael Dorsey, a talented but difficult actor, struggles to find work, he disguises himself as Dorothy Michaels and lands a role on a popular soap opera. Sydney Pollack's long but enjoyable comedy follows in the footsteps of Some Like It Hot, as Michael finds himself trapped in the deception. Dustin Hoffman is excellent in the lead and so is Jessica Lange in her Academy Award winning breakthrough performance.
