Description:
Academy Award(R)-nominee Melanie Griffith (Best Actress, 1989 -- WORKING GIRL) stars as Billie Dawn, a Las Vegas showgirl whose lack of sophistication embarrasses her Washington, D.C., millionaire boyfriend (John Goodman -- THE BABE). He, in turn, hires a handsome and well-educated journalist (Don Johnson -- GUILTY AS SIN) to help smarten her up. In no time at all, the millionaire gets much more than he bargains for! And as Billie blossoms into an independent thinker, sparks fly as she uses her learning to turn the nation's capital upside down! You're sure to love BORN YESTERDAY -- the hilariously delightful comedy hit that proves you should never underestimate the power of an underestimated woman!

What holds this movie together is Melanie Griffith, a deliberate and thoughtful actress. Add the handsome Don Johnson as the teacher/reporter and John Goodman, the hard-boiled, no nonsense businessman and you have a winner.
This movie is a study in so many things: self-respect, respect for others, integrity, dignity, and the beauty of brains. When Billie (Melanie) tells Paul (Don) that she can get anything she wants from Harry (John), she reveals her lack of understanding of self-worth: ... Read More

Really funny comedy. Melony Griffith is charming in her role as a dumb blond that smartens up and John Goodman gives a great performance as a hard nose business man who doesn't always get what he wants.
