Victor/Victoria (1982) is Blake Edwards's musical comedy, a clever cross-cultural spoof of vaudeville and Hollywood glamor. Victoria Grant, a struggling chanteuse in turn-of-the-century Paris, teams with Toddy, a boozy impresario, to pose as a glamorous male singer—Victor—for a swanky nightspot run by mobster King Marchand. The ruse ignites romance, rivalries, and lavish musical numbers written by Henry Mancini. Julie Andrews leads with charm and comedy, while the film blends wit with melodic spectacle.
