He's My Girl is a comedy film from 1987 directed by Gabrielle Beaumont. The movie tells the story of Bryan (T.K. Carter) and Reggie (David Hallyday), two struggling musicians who decided to leave their hometown in Indiana to try their luck in Los Angeles. After arriving in the big city, Bryan and Reggie quickly realize that making it in the music industry is not as easy as they thought. They end up living in their car, playing at small bars for tips.

One day, while playing at a club, they meet a producer named Michael (David Clennon), who offers to get them a record deal if they can come up with a hit song. Bryan and Reggie are overjoyed by the opportunity, but Michael is not impressed by their music and tells them that they need to change their image if they want to become famous.

Michael suggests that they dress up as women and perform as a female duo called the Dolly Dots. Despite their initial reluctance, Bryan and Reggie agree, as they believe that this is their only chance to achieve success.

The movie follows the hilarious and awkward experiences of Bryan and Reggie as they attempt to pass as women in their daily lives while performing as the Dolly Dots at various venues. They also have to deal with the romantic advances of Michael's daughter, Julie (Wendy Gazelle), who is unaware of their true identities.

As the Dolly Dots gain popularity, Bryan and Reggie struggle to keep their identities secret while facing a series of challenges, including dressing up for a beauty pageant, dodging a pair of rowdy bikers, and performing for an audience of conservative Republicans.

Throughout the movie, the duo learns important lessons about friendship, acceptance, and self-confidence, as well as the power of the music industry to shape one's image and identity.

He's My Girl is a fun and lighthearted comedy with memorable characters and a catchy soundtrack that captures the spirit of the 1980s. The film tackles themes of gender identity and stereotypes with a light touch, and portrays its characters with empathy and humor.

Overall, He's My Girl is a nostalgic and entertaining movie that showcases the talents of its cast and reminds us of the enduring appeal of the underdog story.
