Tune in to TCM: Drag Net

Four of our favorite films will be screened tomorrow night on Turner Classic Movies in a mini-marathon salute to "Gender Benders".

First up, two musical delights: Barbra Streisand is a boy in Yentl (still shockingly not on DVD, so catch it while you can) and Julie Andrews is a woman impersonating a man impersonating a woman in Victor/Victoria. Next, Jack Lemmon is a hoot as Daphne in Some Like It Hot. And wrapping up the evening, Dustin Hoffman shows you "How to Succeed in Show Business by Cross-Dressing" in Tootsie.

The fun starts tomorrow at 8:00 PM EST on TCM.
