About this movie

Academy Award and Golden Globe-winner and Emmy-nominee Goldie Hawn ("The First Wives Club," "Private Benjamin") stars in this nostalgic romantic comedy as a demure World War II housewife whose life is enriched by her job at a homefront factory. There she gains an inspirational buddy (Academy Award, Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Christine Lahti - TV's "Jack & Bobby," TV's "Chicago Hope," nominated for this role) and reluctantly enters a hot new romance (played by real-life paramour Emmy and Golden Globe-nominee Kurt Russell -- "Vanilla Sky," "Executive Decision"). This is "Goldie Hawn's best role since 'Private Benjamin,'" declares The New York Times, while People Magazine calls this "American movie-making at its lyrical, buoyant best.

Ratings and reviews

Loved it! The chemistry was certainly there already between Kurt & Goldie. Christine Lahti was excellent too.

One of my favorite movies.

As always this is a great classic
