Fun with Steve Martin & Goldie Hawn in Massachusetts and New York City

An empty nest couple from Ohio (Steve Martin & Goldie Hawn) travels to the Big Apple and has many misadventures as they reevaluate their relationship and lives. John Cleese plays a hotel manager.

"The Out-of-Towners" (1999) is a remake of the 1970 comedy, which I’ve never seen. Critics are too hard on it since it gives ya what ya pay for: A fun hour and a half with a spirited cast and quality locations.

The film was shot in Massachusetts (Arlington & the turnpike) and New York City with some stuff done in Los Angeles & Santa Ana (the airport).
