An immensely-successful film whose vein of strong black humour disguises its criticisms of American morals and society.

Sky Cinema
The laughs are tempered by bleakness and the film ends up saddened by its characters' waywardness.

Rating: 4.5/5 --
Shampoo, made in 1975 but set in 1968, the night before Richard Nixon's election to the presidency, was directed by Hal Ashby and written by Robert Towne and Warren Beatty, who may have produced one of the best scripts in the last three decades.

I didn't care much for the trim this satire on a girl crazy Beverly Hills hairdresser gave me.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
...SHAMPOO still succeeds in catching the darker undertones of the new 'permissive' mood of the times...
Total Film
...SHAMPOO gave audiences everything they expected from sex, a bull's-eye premise and a stellar cast...
USA Today
All the excellent creative components do not add up to a whole.

Product Description:
This fast-paced 1975 comedy, written by Robert Towne and directed by Hal Ashby (previous collaborators on THE LAST DETAIL), provides a sharp, satiric view of the sexual mores of 1960s Southern California. In the last few days before the 1968 election, George (Warren Beatty), a very popular Beverly Hills hairdresser who wants to open his own shop, becomes sexually involved with several, if not all, of his female customers. Drawing on the audience's knowledge of Beatty's reputation as a ladies' man, Towne's script cleverly uses the expectation of fun and carefree sexual high jinks to then slowly begin to show the emotional damage this lifestyle has done, not just to everyone around him, but in a deeper sense to George himself. On the night that Nixon is elected there is a big party for which George has done all the women's hair. Nixon's corrupt world parallels George's deceitful life, which, in both cases, eventually catches up with them.
