Amazon.com essential video:
For those who consider Bulworth to be a savage and unprecedented political send-up, it's worth revisiting Warren Beatty's first, and best, attempt at outrageous social criticism. Mercilessly exposing the essential vacuity of both the sexual revolution and conservative alarmism over cultural permissiveness, Shampoo remains the best movie ever made about Nixon's America, and one of the very best about the tragic and disappointing conclusion to the 1960s. Set on the eve of the 1968 presidential election that elevated Nixon to the Oval Office, Beatty's uproarious satire follows a hairdressing Lothario (played by Mr. You're So Vain himself) in and out of the beds of several women, including the wife of a wealthy businessman, his mistress, and his young daughter (Carrie Fisher, in her first screen role). Juxtaposing tropes from Restoration comedy with Southern California dialogue and a healthy, hilarious dash of running commentary from election returns, Beatty's ruthless awareness cuts through the film like a scalpel. The performances are uniformly excellent and surprisingly ego-free; though Jack Warden's portrayal of Lester, the twice-cuckolded businessman, stands out as a model of sensitive, nuanced parodic acting. Released in 1975 during the messy cleanup at the conclusion of the Watergate era, Shampoo neatly bookends the Nixon presidency, and concludes with the frightening finality of an iron door slamming on a cell. Commended for including the live version of Jefferson Airplane's Plastic Fantastic Lover. --Miles Bethany

...how great Shampoo was. Hal Ashby had a string of wonderful movies in the '70's, and, while his films are remembered, his name is not.

I always wonder, when I look at old films that I once liked a lot, whether they will hold up in time. I really don't remember any strong my reaction to Shampoo, which I saw shortly after it came out. I think I enjoyed it but dismissed it as kind of silly.
Now I think I enjoyed it a lot more. The script is very smart and manages to be both hilarious and serious. The cast is stellar in every sense of the word: Julie Christie and Goldie Hawn, both at the height of their physical ... Read More

This movie remains a bittersweet, vital thing, and is well acted, but the production has a fault that galls me in any "period" movie--the clothes are often of the moment of the film's making, NOT from 1968. Why would it have been difficult to make the wardrobe consistently 60s--and what better expert on what 1968 should look like than Goldie Hawn, a co-star in the film? They got cars and women's skirts right, but most of the male clothing (including bizarro, button-pocket jacket-shirts) and accessories ... Read More

This bland attempt at sexual and social satire never gels. "Shampoo" captures the Beverly Hills milieu of November 1968, but says little about Nixonian America. Except for Jack Warden's cuckolded Republican tycoon, the characterizations are rather dreary. Warren Beatty goes through the motions as the carnally charged hairdresser. Meanwhile, the acting skills of Julie Christie, Goldie Hawn and Lee Grant go to waste. Hal Ashby's directorial style cannot redeem Beatty and Robert Towne's lackluster script. A major ... Read More

The time is the eve of the 1968 election --actual TV footage of Nixon and Agnew is interspersed with the fictional account of one womanizing straight hair dresser (Yes, Virginia, there really is a straight hair dresser), George Roundy (Warren Beatty of "Bonnie and Clyde," "Reds," "Splendor in the Grass," etc. fame)who does women's hair in the beauty shop and takes care of their other needs outside his place of employment. Included among his "clients" are Felicia (Lee Grant), her daughter Lorna (Carrie Fisher), ... Read More
