Gloria dà un passaggio ad un giovanotto, accetta da lui un invito al cinema e nel locale il ragazzo viene assassinato e fatto scomparire. L'ucciso era un agente segreto, che ha fatto in tempo a mollare all'ignara donna un pacchetto di sigarette contenente un microfilm che testimonia il progettato attentato contro il papa in visita negli Usa.

    I remember it a bit differently as I was much younger when I saw it last. I remember the albino guy with the white pupils the most. He was creepy, but kinda crappy at his job as a killer. I appreciate that it is made to be a bit goofy, like tongue in cheek.

    Genre-defying 70s caper which is essentially an homage to many of Alfred Hitchcock's finest films but also a comeback vehicle for Goldie Hawn at her kookiest and most gorgeous. In fact she is so stunning in this movie it makes a nonsense of the idea she is a shy librarian - but anyway... Hawn's character is Gloria Mundy, a reference to "Sic transit gloria mundi," a Latin phrase meaning "thus passes the glory of the world" which was included in the ritual of papal coronation ceremonies. It ties in neatly with the zany narrative which centres on a bizarre plot to assassinate the pope while he is on a visit to San Francisco. The mayhem begins when Gloria picks up a man whose car has broken down. He is actually a CIA agent who deposits a microfilm in her handbag which he intends to collect later. The microfilm becomes a "Macguffin" - a classic Hitchcockian plot device (look it up after watching the film!) After the mysterious microfilm are the bad guys involved in the plot: classic bunglers who enable Gloria to get involved in a series of daring escapes. There are some jump scares, some wonderful gags, some terrific support characters and one of the longest, dullest car chases of all time. But it's a wonderful advert for San Francisco and a terrific comedy-mystery-drama-romance. Hawn and Chevy Chase would star together again after the success of their on-screen chemistry. The theme tune "Ready To Take A Chance Again" (sung but not written by Barry Manilow) was nominated for an Oscar and is used very neatly in the film, which has a madcap finale and a notable role for the ever-hilarious Dudley Moore. So there are many reasons to enjoy this little 70s curiosity, and it stands repeated viewing although it undoubtedly loses its way in the final third.
