Title: Dwarves! Albinos! Pope-Abusers! Oh, My!
Product review: As good for what it says about the mores of 1970's San Francisco (probably the most scenic setting for a movie there can be) as for its neat little plot about a charmingly sweet librarian's accidental involvement in efforts to stop the assassination of the visiting Pope by a Bond-villain-esque gang of thugs. The stylish, perky Foul Play, which tips its hat to both Hitchcock and film noir, is also really funny! Goldie Hawn is lovely here, and as a detective Chevy Chase, once an A-list leading man, actually seems hip. Were the '70's truly like this? I like this movie a lot.
