Product: The Owl and the Pussycat [VHS] (1970)
Rating: 4.0
Cheated!!
Forget "Pretty Woman." Streisand was the original hooker with a heart, and can act comedic circles around Julia Roberts. The theatrical release was R rated for language (one specific word really), so I was shocked to find out that the DVD is an edited version!!! Are the republicans at it again? Is it because Streisand is a democrat? All kidding aside, I'm very disappointed due to this small but very important omission-mainly because it ruins a very funny moment in the film, but also because the "bleep" was so unnecessary. Is the "F" word really such a big deal? Graphic violence gets a green light everytime, but a little swear word might cause little Johnny to grow up up to be a serial killer. Columbia-Tristar sure makes a lot of goofs!! They have missed widescreen on some releases I have purchased from them, and now this!!!! Get it together, guys!!! Only 4 stars because of this error.
