Get By Purely On Hawn's Personality And Charisma
27 November 2014
Plot In A Paragraph: Sunny Ann Davis (Goldie Hawn) is a ditzy blonde who works as a cocktail waitress in Washington, D.C. She rents a room in the home of a gay couple, has a lousy love life and drives a rust bucket of a car that she cannot afford to repair. When she prevents the assassination of The President and a visiting Arab emir and winds up a national heroine.

Only Goldie Hawn could have played this role. It would not have worked with a different actress. It's Hawn's charm that totally carries this movie.

John Ratzenberger really made me laugh in his one scene as a security guard, whilst bonus points must go to any fans who spot an uncredited Chevy Chase as a doctor (Not the one who does the operation) who looks at Goldie Hawn ass and says "Beautiful, just beautiful" to which a heavily medicated Hawn just replies "Thanks"

As a "Married With Children" fan it was fun to spot Amanda Bearse (Marcy) as a soap opera actress.
