Overboard | Year: 1987 Classification: Comedy Directed: - Garry Marshall Actors/Actresses: - Goldie Hawn - Kurt Russell Very funny! Goldie Hawn stars as Joanna Stayton, a stuck-up rich woman who hires a down-to-earth carpenter named Dean Proffitt [Kurt Russell] to build a luxurious closet for her in her yacht. When Dean's work doesn't meet her approval, she tells him to leave. That evening, Joanna falls overboard into the harbor and is fished out in the morning with amnesia. When her photo is put on TV, asking anybody who knows her to come forward, Dean recognizes her and comes up with a scheme. Since she didn't pay him for the work he did and he needs a mother for his four unruly boys, he decides to go and tell her that he's her husband and her name is Annie. When she gets to "their" house out in the country, she's in for quite an experience. When it comes to the DVD, there are no special features, only the theatrical trailer. But this is still a great movie to pick up! Old Silly Fun This ludicrous comedy starring Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn is great. Wealthy and thoroughly unpleasant heiress Joanna Stayton (Hawn) suffers from severe amnesia and the carpenter she stiffs out of 600 bucks, Dean Proffitt (Russell), takes advantage of the situation to take her home to his seedy hovel and 4 unruly kids. There he convinces her that she's his wife, with the ensuing misadventures as amusing as you'd expect. Throughout the movie they fall madly in love (of course), and Proffitt is then left with the unenviable task of explaining his actions to his lovely guest when her memory eventually returns. It's a the hokiest, silliest movie that you'll ever love, with both Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell turning in great performances. Laughs are just about guaranteed, and it's one of those movies that just gets better with repeated showings. Reccomended. very entertaining and enjoyable, a terrific movie!! easily ,the best movie goldie or kurt have made together or apart, period. its for anyone who is down to earth and enjoys a good practical joke. its a funny movie yet heartwarming and will make you feel good. Part of the magic comes from goldie and kurt being a couple in real life as they have this certain chemistry. This movie I enjoy over and over and it will have a permanent place in my collection. It's just too bad there's not a sequel because you don't want the fun to end. Buy Overboard at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.com Jamster - the latest ringtones for your phone!
