Shampoo (1975, U.S.A.)

Shampoo is a racy, star-studded bedroom farce set in the decadent, sexually liberated Los Angeles of the late 1960s.  Academy Award winner Warren Beatty and Robert Towne wrote the screen play, and Hal Ashby directed. Nominated for four Academy Awards, and is one of the American Film Institute’s 100 Funniest Movies.

George is one of L.A.’s most desirable men.  He’s a Beverly Hills hairdresser who makes all his clients look and feel better than ever. Encouraged by his girlfriend Jill (Goldie Hawn) to open his own salon, George approaches conservative businessman Lester (Jack Warden) for financing. But Lester has no idea that George is sleeping with his wife (Lee Grant), his mistress (Julie Christie) and his teenage daughter (Carrie Fisher). Can George resist temptation and settle down with Jill or will he get tangled up in even more scandalous affairs?
