:''For the television series based on the film, see Down and Out in Beverly Hills (TV series)'' ''Down and Out in Beverly Hills'' is a 1986 American comedy film based on the French play ''Boudu sauvé des eaux'', which had previously been adapted on film in 1932 by Jean Renoir. ''Down and Out in Beverly Hills'' was directed by Paul Mazursky, and starred Nick Nolte, Bette Midler and Richard Dreyfuss. The film is about a rich but dysfunctional couple who save the life of a suicidal homeless man. Flamboyant musician Little Richard also makes an appearance, and contributed the song "Great Gosh a'Mighty" to the soundtrack. The song's success led to a revitalization of his career. Released by Touchstone Pictures, a film label of The Walt Disney Studios, ''Down and Out in Beverly Hills'' has the distinction of being the first R-rated film ever released by Disney. However, countless R-rated films have since received distribution by Disney, although Walt Disney Pictures—the flagship family-oriented brand—has yet to release a film with a rating stronger than PG-13. ==Synopsis== David "Dave" Whiteman (Dreyfuss) and his wife, Barbara (Midler), are a couple whose 20-year marriage is unfulfilling. Dave is having an affair with the live-in maid (Elizabeth Peña), while Barbara tries to relieve her constant feelings of anxiety by experimenting with various New Age therapies. A "down and out" homeless man named Jerry Baskin (Nolte) wanders into the backyard of the Whitemans' Beverly Hills home, and tries to drown himself in the pool. Dave helps Jerry get back on his feet. The family is initially disgusted by Jerry, but they end up growing fond of him after getting to know him better. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Down and Out in Beverly Hills」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
