Synopsis
Born Yesterday (1993) is Luis Mandoki's romantic comedy, ready to watch online on iFILM. Brash millionaire Harry rolls into Washington with his girlfriend Billie Dawn on his arm, but her ex-showgirl manners threaten to sink his deals. His fix is blunt: pay a polished journalist to teach her how to behave in society.
Don Johnson plays the tutor, Melanie Griffith his scatterbrained pupil, and John Goodman the jealous benefactor footing the bill — the whole film rides on the chemistry between them. Harry's plan backfires from the first lesson. The more Billie reads and thinks, the less willing she is to stay quiet and agreeable. She discovers a sharp mind and a backbone of her own, and falls for her teacher in the process, setting up a scandal far louder than anything she did before.
A breezy remake of the 1950 classic, carried by Griffith's charm even through its more predictable turns. Easy evening viewing for fans of old-fashioned romantic comedy. Stream Born Yesterday (1993) online on iFILM.
