Book review - "Making Tootsie"

 Interesting-ish account of the making of the now classic comedy, famed at the time for its on set clashes between Sydney Pollack and Dustin Hoffman. Reading about it sounds exhausting. A lot of Hoffman's behaviour looking back is worrying - auditioning women for parts in the film, "flirting" with everyone. The chapter on Teri Garr is touching - she seemed to be on the cusp of major stardom.
