above average movie, Reivew on Tootsie

1. In the first 20 minutes or so, it seems messy, and the efficiency of explaining the play is not high. The later plot shows that Hoffman has been unemployed during this period of time, and because of personality problems, he is not good at cooperating with others, so it is good to start with "auditing Tolstoy", why bother Did he talk to other actors? There are also many actors throwing birthday parties for him, which is also confusing. In short, the beginning is bad, messy and cinematic.
2. The middle parts are all okay, but they are not too powerful. The main line is unclear whether it is "acting a soap opera" or "interacting with actress colleagues." The protagonist's initiative is slightly less, and many things are passive. It still feels like there's still a lack of one to start with pretending to be an actress, and without a major big event, the story is a bit loose. Fortunately, this script seems to have been revised by masters, and finally several lines were twisted together, and there was a comedy scene where "both men and women said Hoffman was gay". The effect is good.
3. Hoffman's performance is good, otherwise, this film will make people feel that it is not very good. The reason for some of the above deficiencies is that this script mainly comes from an idea, and then a story is made up around this idea. Therefore, "pretending to be an actress" is the main event, but in this event, only a few It's just an "embarrassing" joy. The theme is not too clear.
The overall feeling, if the full score is 100, the quality of this film is around 70 points.
