* DuelingMovies: With ''Film/VictorVictoria'', which is about an unemployed female singer who disguises herself as a man to get work as a drag queen. It premiered the previous winter and directly went up against this film in the Best Supporting Actress category at the Academy Awards (''Tootsie'' won, for Jessica Lange), both films getting a clutch of nominations. While ''Tootsie'' was ultimately the more successful of the two with critics and audiences, ''Victor/Victoria'' also did very well. Interestingly, both films later received {{Screen To Stage Adaptation}}s, but were separated by years instead of months. (Another transgender role was nominated by the Academy Awards that year as well, with John Lithgow for ''Film/TheWorldAccordingToGarp''.)
