Dir.: Chris Columbus | 120 minutes

Mrs. Doubtfire

USA 1993 | 120 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Daniel loves his children very much and the thought that after the divorce he won't be in their lives like he always was pushes him to dress up as a maid in her 60s and work for his wife. We have plenty of examples of stars in gender-reversal roles, the most famous of which is Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie and, of course, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon in Some Like It Hot, but Robin Williams, like Robin Williams, with his talent and charisma, the ability to switch between the comic and the dramatic in such a convincing way, and with an abundance of warmth and humanity, created a character that, even thirty-something years later, still captures the heart.
