Protocol

1984 • 95 minutes

About this movie

Superstar Goldie Hawn ("The First Wives Club," "Private Benjamin") is a spirited DC cocktail waitress who, through a series of comic misadventures, becomes an overnight celebrity as a protocol official for the State Department. But her do-nothing job leads to her being used as a pawn in a covert arms deal. Directed by Herbert Ross ("Steel Magnolias," "Boys on the Side"), this is "a breezy comedy that was made to order for the gifted Goldie Hawn," says The New York Times, and The Washington Post calls it "the kind of corny screwball comedy you thought nobody made any more." Co-starring Academy Award-nominee Chris Sarandon ("The Princess Bride"), Amanda Bearse ("Married: With Children") and Ed Begley, Jr. ("The Accidental Tourist").
