Paul255378 This little film certainly is no Acadamy Award winner, but if you were of college age in 1979 and living in the Minneapolis, St Paul, Minnesota area, you will love this film! It has become a time capsule for those of us going to college here in Minnesota during that year.Filmed almost entirely in Minneapolis and St Paul with lots of scenes at the University of Minnesota. Good performances by Gary Busey, Annette O'Toole, Tony Randal as the creepy butler and Eddie Albert as the family patriarch. Romance on Lake Minnetonka with Gary Busey as the underdog trying to win beautiful Annette O'Toole's heart away from the rich villain! A college acquaintance, Beth Bosacker has a small part as Rickie, one of the brides maids. I remember how excited we all were in the fall of 1978 when we learned that someone we knew was cast in this film!!
prideinthetide I love this movie, but I love the songs from Seals and Croft more. I have searched everywhere to find the music with no luck. Please if anyone has any information about how to find the soundtrack I would greatly appreciate it. Gary Busey is wonderful, and the physical comedy by Randal and leechman is amazing. They should definitely put this movie and many more on DVD for further generations to see. I grew up watching the movie just to here the song by S&C during the opening credits and during the love scene by the lake in the van with Gary busey and Annette o'toole. For a good laugh and a sweet ending this is a must see. and it is a shame that it was never given the credit it deserves or the play time and attention.
chrisnope Back in like 1982, before we had real cable, my dad had a single cable channel! Remember those days they played the same movies for a month and after midnight soft core x rated films. Nonetheless, I saw this film one sat. afternoon. It is absolutely hilarious and I cannot believe more folks have not seen it. If you like the south park guys, this is a good show to see where they learned some of the off color comedy. I have to say that if you like comedy and surprises you should ck. it out. I have been trying to find it recently. I am sure ebay will be a good bet. I have nothing but good things to say regarding this film. Gary Busy's best! Anette O' tooles awesome. I have nothing but great things to say about the Tony Randall character. Also the end lines from his character are classic.
olliegrind No other movie has ever been made or will ever be made that can top Foolin' Around. Gary Busey's performance is pure genius. The amount of times someone gets hit in the nuts only leaves you wanting more. "Everytime I get around that guy something goes Haywire"...
