Just Like A Woman Details

Julie Walters is good value, as always, but this comedy drama about transvestism is pretty worthless otherwise. Who is it aimed at? Closet cross-dressers? The prurient? Ed Wood fanatics? Hard to tell, as it lurches from frilly farce to black-lace banality with sickly sentiment piled as high as the heels, come the “Nobody's perfect” finale. Adrian Pasdar looks as uncomfortable playing Gerald/Geraldine as you will be watching this curious frock opera that's as emotionally fake as his falsies. Tootsie it ain't. Nor even Glen or Glenda for that matter.

"...One of the quirkiest films on screen. It is a sweet little comedy about the sunny side of transvestism....Pasdar makes Gerald immensely likable and Geraldine vulnerable..."
