I don't like this as much as I think I should do. Julie Andrews was unconvincing as a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman. Well she was convincing as a woman, but not for one moment could I imagine any of the characters in the film believing that she wasn't a woman.
And that all spoilt the film. No not just that, it was an unbelievable story too.

(It seems that the joy of having Del back on letterboxd has removed any slight ability I occasionally had to write coherent reviews!)

This was a pretty fun film. Julie Andrews is a joy, as always, and the supporting cast is great. Very funny, but it has a fair share of problems and unfortunately, most negatives override the positives. Takes a while to get going (the plot doesn't kick in until about a half hour in). I expected a little more from this. I didn't completely buy into Julie Andrews as a man. She's obviously believable as a woman, just not as a man. The biggest problem is that it's just too long for a comedy. It's nearly 2 1/2 hours long and comedies should rarely even be 2 hours. The slow parts don't help either and make the film feel even longer than it needs to be.

It's a fun film, but there are better gender-crossing comedies I'd rather see and do the job much better, like Tootsie and Kinky Boots, both highly recommended opposed to this.

Judith Butler would be proud of this film. Talk about an excellent and extremely watchable slap in the face to any notion of heteronormativity. It is a shame this film is not more widely acclaimed.

Maybe the last real screwball comedy. At least, the last one worth a damn

It's ok but it could have been so much better. They opened a lot of doors but just let them rattle in the wind. Don't really know why anyone was nominated for anything in this, except maybe Julie Andrews, because she's always awesome.

An outstanding comedy with top-notch performances from Julie Andrews, Robert Preston, James Garner, and Lesley Ann Warren. One of the first mainstream hits of its nature and a classic in its own right.

This is a truly delightful film. Probably overshadowed its year of release by the other cross-dressing comedy "Tootsie", but this has some solid laughs. Great performances by Julie Andrews, Robert Preston, and Lesley Ann Warren.

Touchy subject at the time. Pretty funny.

Me encanta el cine de Blake Edwards,pero sobre todo,Julie Andrews me pone.

I love Blake Edwards movies,but most of all,Julie Andrews turns me on.
