Victoria Grant (Julie Andrews), a down-and-out British soprano, struggles to find work in the nightclubs of 1930s Paris. While trying to scam a free meal, Grant meets cabaret performer Toddy (Robert Preston), who comes up with an idea that will change everything. Acting as her manager, Toddy bills Grant as a male female impersonator. When the nightclubs eat it up, the duo makes it big -- even a Chicago mobster (James Garner) is enamored with Grant. But keeping the truth a secret is no easy task.

Critics Consensus

Driven by a fantastic lead turn from Julie Andrews, Blake Edwards' musical gender-bender is sharp, funny and all-round entertaining.

Victor and Victoria is charming as a musical comedy, but it is also a remarkably poignant commentary on the performance

Victor Victoria is a marvelous mixture of genders, a blatant attack on sexual attitudes that is both challenging and hilarious.

Boston Globe

Deprived of legitimate titillation, Victor/Victoria" comes off as another leaden Hollywood farce.

Cinema Sight

It was a sensational, engaging, and evocative film that rightly remains one of the bright spots of 1982 and of historical pro-LGBTQ cinema.

Rated: 4/4

It’s enjoyable and basically its heart is in the right place. It’s a step forward in a time when most films seem to be a step behind, and that’s saying something.

Gone With The Twins

Andrews is delightful, even as the gimmick of a plot approaches its inevitable, calamitous yet contrived, and irresolute final revelation.

Rated: 6/10

One of my favorite performances by Julie Andrews. Also its worth noting that the comedic bits don't get out of control, which can often happen in Blake Edwards' stuff probably because there is an actual story happening here.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Still hilarious after all these years. The clever plot and acting are obviously first-rate and in today's queer-friendly atmosphere a nice trip.
