He was wonderful, even in drag. I love the film
aww i love him! is itjust the glasses hes wearing or does he have a fake lazy eye in this? lol just a question not a criticism
Best line from Tootsie: “How much trouble can a baby be?”
Damn he’s good.
He is outrageous. Crack up spoof screen test..!!
I like how the camera slowly goes up his legs at the beginning. ha
Does he looks more like a woman here or in the movie? I can’t tell.
46 my arse!
lol – i love tootsie…. hoffman is brilliant whatever he does
Yes! Hoffman can do no wrong.
You know some sicko is jacking off to this

@pancholdn I hope aint you dude. Just kiddin
@dyhard678 you caught me lol
fukken hilarious
@pancholdn good one. hahahhaha!
i glad he ended up using the accent for dorothy
@rubinoos1 Looks more like a man here, the movie got it right in the end.
I saw him walking in downtown toronto, and my grandma and I started freaking out, and like, stalked him for half an hour.
P But we never went up to him, cause he was with his family, But what a sight it was =D
Real actor – can play any role he sets his mind on – thing with many (if not most) Hollywood actors is that they always seem to play themselves on screen every time, ie it’s hard to get away from their personality, be it Pacino, de Niro, Nicholson, or Brando – only Hoffman is an “actor” who subsumes his personality in practically every role he’s ever played – Kramer vs Kramer, Midnight Cowboy, Graduate, Tootsie, Sleepers, Lenny, Wag the Dog, Bathgate, Madigan, Outbreak…he’s a national treasure
Dustin is the Best actor in the world ! n look at him,,, wow,,
I am his biggest fan on earth and I ‘d just like to meet him atleast once before I die ..
I am 21 n have watched all his movies…
He doesn’t act- he lives on screen
@pistachioguy I would not put Brando in this catagory…..In his time,he, Clift, Dean really changed the acting world…..Now Julia Roberts, LOVE HER, but always the same….. But GO DUSTIN!
@Mikeys – Julia Roberts??!!
Brando’s in there for a reason (and now that you mention it, Dean as well) – since they are more monodimensional actors — they don’t allow the roles to take over.
I omitted several other brilliant American actors like Kevin Spacey, William Hurt, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Ed Norton, Denzel Washington, and older ones Poitier, Mitchum, Lancaster, Peck , Bogie, Peck, Gable, Grant, Stewart, who in fact can ACT..but Julia?..is you head screwed on straight?
amazing how he had not developed the character at all at this point
He is a true legend!
“I can pad anything.” There’s no padding in Hoffman’s acting. If I met this character on a blind date, it would not be till bedtime that I would know the truth! He does not act, he transforms himself.
