Shampoo (18)
★★★✭ "Shampoo trains a darkly comic lens on post-Nixon America, aiming at - and often hitting - an array of timely targets." ~ Rotten Tomatoes.
Starring Warren Beatty, Julie Christie, and Goldie Hawn, and set on the day of the Presidential election in 1968, Shampoo operates as both a sharp critique of the excesses of America in the late 1960s and a commentary on the duplicity of society in the mid-1970s.
Directed by noted Hollywood liberal Hal Ashby and written by Robert Towne and star Warren Beatty, the film clearly hit the right note with audiences at the time becoming the third highest-grossing American film of 1975, surpassed only by Jaws and One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
A former blacklistee, Grant had previously been nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar in Ashby’s The Landlord.
By the 1980s Grant would move into direction, making fiction and non-fiction films that reflected her on-going political and social concerns.
