Hey, Toronto! Win Tickets To See Kurt Russell And Goldie Hawn In OVERBOARD On The Big Screen!

Yes, Toronto folk, the ScreenAnarchy-curated Russellmania: The Legend Of Kurt Russell retrospective continues to continue at the TIFF Bell Lightbox this week as we move away from the John Carpenter part of the program and on Russell's big rom-com hit, Overboard!

Joanna Stayton (Goldie Hawn) is a fabulously wealthy hausfrau who, like many fabulously wealthy people, believes her fabulous wealth gives her license to treat all those around her horribly -- including, on this particular day, blue-collar carpenter Dean Proffitt (Kurt Russell -- and yes, that's really the character's name), whom she stiffs for $600 on a renovation job. But when Joanna is stricken with amnesia after falling overboard on a sailing trip, Dean hits upon a not-at-all complicated revenge scheme: rechristen Joanna as "Annie," convince her and the hospital staff that the two of them are married, and have the one-time queen bee cook and clean up after him and his four motherless sons in their ramshackle man-cave. Shenanigans duly follow in this cheerful, immensely likeable comedy that reunited real-life couple Russell and Hawn after their first co-starring venture in Jonathan Demme's Swing Shift.
Overboard hits the screen at 9:30pm tomorrow and we want you to be there! We've got two pairs of tickets to give away and all you need to do to win one is email me here and name a film starring one of Russell and Hawn's children! Good luck!
