Damn, she starred in two of my favorite movies...
Young Frankenstein and Let it Ride...
Oh well.

"What knockers."

"Thank you, Doctor."

also in Let It Ride with Garr (along with fellow leftie thesp Richard Dreyfuss) was Jennifer Tilly. She was playing a bimbo (what a stretch) while Garr was the gambling Dreyfuss' long suffering wife. It was a comedy. She didn't have a little black dress, ala True Lies, she had an even littler red dress. She ran up behind Dreyfuss and pressed against his back and put her hands over his eyes, shouting:

"Guess who!"

and Dreyfuss replied

"A football salesman?"

My two favorite Garr movies are Close Encounters (also with Dreyfuss) and Oh God!, with John Denver. She had a run of husbands with some significant issues.

Great scene. I often use a quote from a little later in that same scene. She says
"Well, you know what they say, nothing ventured...nothing ventured."
