Tagline: In a town where anything goes, everything does in this funny bedroom farce.
Plot: This fast-paced 1975 comedy, written by Robert Towne and directed by Hal Ashby (previous collaborators on THE LAST DETAIL), provides a sharp, satiric view of the sexual mores of 1960s Southern California. In the last few days before the 1968 election, George (Warren Beatty), a very popular Beverly Hills hairdresser who wants to open his own shop, becomes sexually involved with several, if not all, of his female customers. Drawing on the audience's knowledge of Beatty's reputation as a ladies' man, Towne's script cleverly uses the expectation of fun and carefree sexual high jinks to then slowly begin to show the emotional damage this lifestyle has done, not just to everyone around him, but in a deeper sense to George himself. On the night that Nixon is elected there is a big party for which George has done all the women's hair. Nixon's corrupt world parallels George's deceitful life, which, in both cases, eventually catches up with them.
