Foul Play

Today Tivo found an old goofy movie on TNT with Goldie Hawn as a San Francisco librarian, Foul Play (1978). Its on this list of movie librarians, but I hadn't ever seen it (or even heard of it). She even knits -- and defends herself against one would-be assasin with a pair of knitting needles! Chevy Chase and Brian Dennehy are cops, Dudley Moore is a hysterical swinger with a majorly tripped out bachelor pad. Apparently it has a bunch of Hitchcock references, but they were lost on me. Its fun in a creepy 70s mystery movie way and was a good way to decompress after a day of work and committee meetings.
