Synopsis

Overboard (1987) is a romantic comedy from director Garry Marshall, and you can watch online on iFILM. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell headline as sparring partners — a couple off-screen too. Spoiled heiress Joanna Stayton barely steps off her yacht except to boss the staff around.

While docked in a small Oregon town, she hires carpenter Dean Proffitt to build a closet below deck, picks his work apart and sends him off without a dime. That night she tumbles over the rail and washes up with no memory of who she is. Dean, a widower juggling four rowdy sons and a stack of bills, spots her face in the paper and figures she owes him a wife and a free housekeeper. So he brings her home and swears she's his beloved Annie.

Marshall, who'd later make Pretty Woman, leans entirely on the Hawn-Russell chemistry: the snobbery melts into kitchen chaos, and a con job slowly turns into something real. A warm, breezy 112-minute charmer from the eighties. Stream Overboard (1987) online on iFILM.
