Comment
Goldie Hawn is a spoilt rich girl, who falls off a boat, loses her memory and is taken in by a poor local carpenter (Kurt Russell) to look after his children. He convinces her that they are married and the children are hers. As they spend time together they fall in love with each other and she starts to become a real mother to his children. This is an entertaining comedy that thrives off the energy, performance and relationship between Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. There is a good supporing performancet from Roddy McDowell as the understanding butler.
