While Dustin Hoffman paraded around in a dress in "Tootsie," Julie Andrews donned a suit for "Victor/Victoria"
as theatres showcased the glories and perils of cross-dressing; Richard Gere swept Debra Winger off her
feet in "An Officer and a Gentleman" as "Gandhi" swept the entire British nation away from India... and who
could forget "E.T. -- The Extra Terrestrial" as the world's most loveable alien? These were the films that
made our day(s) in the year that was 1982.
