"Victor" is definitely one of MGM's best musicals. But it's rarely seen as a standard musical, for one reason it's so exotic—good-looking, but atypical. In many classic musicals, it seems so out of place. It allows people to see how musical films can be made without the narrative logic of Hollywood. The film is different from the story setting of ordinary musical films that are divorced from reality. Although its time back is set in Paris in the 1930s, this musical film with the theme of sexual inversion obviously caters to the sexual liberation trend in the early 1980s. The musical is a rare liberation. If a gay film abandons the discussion of sexual orientation, it is relatively deviated from the realism attribute. But in "Victor," Edwards handles both very neatly. Beyond the understated lyricism, the film also has powerful passages. When Marchand chose to be with Victoria when he didn't know her true identity, his phrase "whether you are a man or a woman" is almost as good as "no one is perfect" in "Passionate". And Marchand's bodyguard inadvertently smashed him after being "bent" and said "So boss, you are gay", which is even more amazing. Victor, played by Julie Andrews Edwards, is a woman trying to imitate a drag male singer. She not only found a balance between the two, but also made people discover a kind of neutral beauty that has never been seen before  .

    I saw this a long time ago and thought it was pretty good. And these domestic women disguised as men are weak.

Victor Victoria quotes

  • Toddy: [singing] When people speak of Gay Paree / They think that when they say Paree is gay / They mean that Gay Paree is "Gay!" / It is not in the way Paree was gay in yesterday Paree / It means today that Gay Paree *is* Gay.

    [the pianist plays the Fairy Waltz. Toddy stops him]

    Toddy: [spoken] Not that gay.

  • Victoria: Could I see the wine list?

    Waiter: We have a white 1934, we have a red 1934. Last week we had some Rosee, but we're using it in the salad.
