On the verge of starvation in 1930s Paris, erstwhile entertainer Victoria is rescued by gay cabaret performer Toddy. Victoria then finds work playing a male female impersonator, but it complicates her personal life.
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.

Edwards odd reworking of his orginal German-language film garnered awards at the time but hasn't aged well.
Edwards' enjoyable musical farce boasts terrific turns from Julie Andrews as a starving artist playing a man impersonating a woman, Garner as a Chicago gangster, Preston as the flamboyant gay friend, and Lesley Ann Warren as the perpetually horny floozie
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.
