mvie mu-1022574: Julia plays Victoria as Victor/Victoria

Thu, 6 Mar 2008 02:26:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sj1and0 - Ever since I saw the movie, The Sound Of Music, Julie Andrews has become one of my favorite actresses. So naturally, I became amorous of her distinctive voice and her ability to shift into any character and play it very well. Plus her voice is so...

mvie mu-1022574: Victor/Victoria - can you spell cliche? - gay themes

Sun, 23 May 2004 19:07:21 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author CyndiA - I remembered why I hesitate to rent “musicals” when I put Victor/Victoria in the DVD player. While there are a few musicals I love like “Sound of Music,” “Annie,” and “Grease,” most of the films where people suddenly break into song and dance for...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Kidnykid - VICTOR/VICTORIA is, in the final analysis, a gender-based farce.

Wed, 12 Feb 2003 00:47:03 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author MrsNormanMaine - I am most put out. After a most uncomfortable journey, I arrived at Fanning Island, which is, I believe, three thousand miles from the nearest hair and nail salon, not to mention laundromat, and was jeeped out to the location for Celebrity...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author valarltd - This is a sweet, funny movie.

Julie Andrews is Victoria Grant, a down-and-out singer in 1930's Paris. She's so desperate, she's willing to swap her virtue for a meatball. That is, until she meets Carroll Todd (Robert Preston). Through a...

Sun, 8 Apr 2001 21:02:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jankp -

One question: do you believe that a woman could pretend to be a man who’s pretending to be a woman? Let me back up. I’ll put it this way to make it a little clearer what I mean. Do you believe, or even want to believe if you will, that a brilliant...

Sun, 1 Apr 2001 03:02:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author telynor - This is one of my favorite films when I need a good laugh. I got lucky tonight and my local PBS station was running this one uncut and without any commercials.

It's Paris of the 20's/30's, a time of gangster, nightclubs and one down and out...

Wed, 16 Aug 2000 21:27:46 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author leighnc - 'Victor/Victoria' is, bottom line, one of the best comedies I've ever seen! The casting of Robert Preston as Toddy, the gay entertainer just cruising through life in search of a good time (and the almighty dollar, was genius. The man was both talented...

Wed, 5 Jan 2000 22:13:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Stloraine - Victor Victoria has the scene I most often recall when I think of a funny scene in a movie. It doesn't matter how many times I've seen it, I still laugh. When out-of-work singer Julie Andrews is thrown out of her apartment after fending off the...
