Victor/Victoria

Description

A man impersonating a woman on stage? Piece of cake. But a woman whose livelihood depends on pretending to be a man who pretends to be a woman? Now you've got problems! You've also got laughs when Julie Andrews plays Victor and Victoria in this clever delight from filmmaker Blake Edwards boasting a marvelous Academy Award winning score by Henry Mancini and Leslie Bricusse.

Robert Preston plays a cabaret perfumer who devises the gender-bender stage act. Farcically complicating matters are James Garner as a mobster suspecting Victor is a Victoria and Lesley Ann Warren as a short-fused floozy. Of this movie's seven Oscar nominations, three went to Golden Globe Winner Andrews (Actress), National Board Review Award Winner Preston (Supporting Actor) and Warren (Supporting Actress).
