  • Born Yesterday
  • Academy Award(R)-nominee Melanie Griffith (Best Actress, 1989 -- WORKING GIRL) stars as Billie Dawn, a Las Vegas showgirl whose lack of sophistication embarrasses her Washington, D.C., millionaire boyfriend (John Goodman -- THE BABE). He, in turn, hires a handsome and well-educated journalist (Don Johnson -- GUILTY AS SIN) to help smarten her up. In no time at all, the millionaire gets much more than he bargains for! And as Billie blossoms into an independent thinker, sparks fly as she uses her learning to turn the nation's capital upside down! You're sure to love BORN YESTERDAY -- the hilariously delightful comedy hit that proves you should never underestimate the power of an underestimated woman!
