Movie Reviews of The Duchess and the Dirtwater FoxMovie Review: Goldie & George - May we have another,please Summary: 5 Stars
It's finally here on DVD. When I first saw this movie in 1977, I knew that I would be seeing it again...little did I think, that I would see it much more than again...at last count, 27 times. The producers seem to have steadfastly refused to release it on DVD, keeping it in a VHS format for decades...but finally it's here in DVD, thank the Lord.
It is possibly the best Goldie Hawn comedy (in close contest with Foul Play).
Both Goldie Hawn & George Segal play their respective roles as the hooker & the thief-lover-gambler to perfection. They are funny, lovable & above all, entertaining.
The script is outstanding...there is a sequence in a stagecoach, in pseudo-French, with a deadpan Mormon playing the straight role, which should be in the Comedy Hall of Fame (if they ever invent one). The Hawn song "you can pluck me apples...." is probably the funniest song I have ever heard. George Segal as the Dirtwater Fox is an irresistably cute rascal. The direction is excellent.
Would Goldie & George consider a sequel, even 30 years later???
