Tootsie

     Those of you born after 1982 may remember this as an episode of Family Guy. The rest of us remember it as the flip side of the coin when trying to decide whether to see Tootsie or Gandhi.
     Dustin Hoffman plays an actor whom nobody wants to work with. When there's a role available on a popular daytime drama, he decides to audition. The only problem is that the role is female. No problem, he can play a woman. The problems come after he gets the role.
     His roommate (Bill Murray) and his agent (director Sydney Pollack) are the only ones who know he's both Michael Dorsey and Dorothy Michaels. His girlfriend (Teri Garr) thinks he's seeing another woman and he's constantly fighting off advances from various men on the show and the woman he's attracted to (Jessica Lange) thinks he's a lesbian.
     If it's been a while since you've seen it, give it a look, it still holds up pretty well. You can show it to somebody who only knows it as a Family Guy episode and see it again for the first time, just make sure she turns her phone off long enough to get the joke.
