Swing Shift (1984)
7/10
Disjointed but delightful
20 January 2022
It's no secret that star Hawn and director Demme clashed during the filming. Unfortunately, it shows. Still, the story remains intact; and thanks to Oscar-nominated Lahti, it's immensely re-watchable.

My only nitpicking issue with this film is its artistic direction, particularly hair styling, costuming, and makeup. It's as though someone from the 1980s tried to replicate the 1940s time period without enough budget to pull it off...or enough experience. I fault Production for this.

That being said, I watch it every time it airs, no matter what channel. A must for Hawn fans.
