Blake Edwards's 1982 sex comedy has the most beautiful range of tones of any American film of its period: it is a work of dry wit, high slapstick, black despair, romantic warmth, and penetrating intelligence.

Victor/Victoria is so good, so exhilarating, that the only depressing thing about it is the suspicion that Mr. Edwards is going to have a terrible time trying to top it.

Not only a funny movie, but, unexpectedly, a warm and friendly one.

Victor/Victoria is a sparkling, ultra-sophisticated entertainment from Blake Edwards.
