Hollywood legend Goldie Hawn tries to identify lines from some of her most memorable films like Private Benjamin, Overboard and Death Becomes Her. She shares memories of winning an Oscar for her role in Cactus Flower, collaborating with Kurt Russell both on set and at home, and what makes Meryl Streep the perfect girlfriend.

I hope Goldie Hawn realizes how much joy she has brought to generations of people who have watched her performances--and more recently the enlightenment she is bringing to students with her work in translating research into practice about the mind.

[@MarcosIsABaritone]

Literally GENERATIONS. She's an icon.

[@jonfreeman9682]

She deserves an Oscar for a lifetime contribution to film.

Precisely.

[@slytv4352]

True. It was noticable, that she really spoke of everyone with the highest respect. That is outstanding in these times. Class from head to toe.

[@SpikeSPS]

Wow. The way she assesses her work. "We had fun" "We collaborated well together." "She was so great..." Over 50 years in a business that has the potential to make you a self celebrating egomaniac and she's discussing the human connections she's had. Just makes you want to hug her... and hug her parents:)

Cactus Flower earned her an Oscar. She was nominated for Private Benjamin. Do you realize how great your comedic performance has to be to be recognised at the Oscars? . Marvelous actor.

[@giuseppeianniello1998]

Winning an Oscar for your film debut is truly impressive, she’s amazing!

[@MartinHCollection]

I´m shocked Goldie didn´t know Death Becomes Her :o Such a classic!

[@englisheverywhere3681]

I was too! Disappointed =( my fav movie ever.

[@Starkardur]

Probably too painful, she's starting to look like her character - at the very end of the movie

[@emusaurus]

I mean the name Ernest was in the line...

[@HamishDownie]

They didn’t exactly give her the most memorable line

[@eaudeanni]

I just think the actors watch the movie only one time and then never again 😊

[@ticoangelo]

For you, guys. For you. Both Goldie and Meryl were not fond of the BTS of this movie.

[@edreid7872]

Her entire diatribe in Private Benjamin while being punished in the rain is golden..I quote it all the time when I'm upset..😂

[@patty2850]

I adore Goldie. Her talent is outstanding. She brought us so much fun through her personality.

[@carlosmartins3009]

You can see she remembered lines from roles where she emotionally connected to the characters, colleagues or simply had fun. Besides, a carreer ranging 50 years is a lot.

[@truce1121]

I know these are probably long forgotten by many but Foul Play and Seems Like Old Times are my favorite Goldie Hawn movies!!! The chemistry between her and Chevy Chase and Charles Grodin is fabulous!!!

Goldie if u reading this: death becomes her was the first movie I watched at 11 in theatre and than bought the vhs. To this day I know the movie so well I can lip sync it from start to finish. Your part changed my life despite being a noir comic, Helen was me. Helen represents me. I’m still that girl. Hope u know u changed the life of a little Italian girl in the poor suburb of Rome.

Adorable and hugely talented lady. I just love the fact that she and Kurt are (and will always be!) together.

[@soilgrasswaterair]

There are some actors that you just feel instant joy when they show up on your screen or in the newspaper. When they have a movie or tv-show on you sit down to watch it (if you had nothing planned, but flipped through the channels/streams and saw them and you stayed and enjoyed the project they’re in). You might not actively seek them out anymore because they’re not working as much as they used to (you miss them on the screen because you don’t see them as often as before, but a clip like this or an interview or a mention of them by their colleagues, will make you happy and feel it’s nice to hear they are enjoying the fruit of their labour and they’re enjoying traveling, their home and of course family and friends). If they decide to do a project you make sure to watch it though. To me Goldie Hawn is one of those actors, it’s always very pleasant to see her and listen to her thoughts and views on things. Loved her in Death becomes her with Bruce Willis and Meryl Streep❤

[@dshadow3173]

I still say Seems Like Old Times was one of Goldie's best movies. Her, Grodin and Chevy Chase and the rest of the great talent in that movie makes it a classic.

[@jcarterla]

She's not outside eating chicken, that's for sure.

[@thomasmagnum3588]

She is amazing, I am 62 and have loved her since the Laugh-In days. She is still sooooo beautiful, even though (quite selfishly, I think), I would have loved to see her age a bit more naturally.

Aged?

@@KendallMarie94 I'll go way out on a limb and guess Steve meant a ton of plastic surgery. Strangely, she mentioned it here: 01:00 .

[@KendallMarie94]

@@akrenwinkle I know what he meant but the aging process really makes it worse, especially if you get work done young and don't keep up with maintenance.

[@akrenwinkle]

@@KendallMarie94 If you mean every 20,000 miles, I agree. That said, it's rough being famous for so long, and I don't know what's worse... knife or no knife. I saw some recent pics of Michelle Phillips, who seems to have had no surgery at all, and I was shocked. She looked like anybody's great-grandmother, and we're not used to seeing celebs age naturally.

[@joniheisenberg]

@@josephinakeam6197 I know right ? 🙄

[@soilgrasswaterair]

This is such a nice-nasty compliment (passive aggressive even). You could have just stuck with “she looks great”, but instead you had to throw in some ageism there as well as by saying she looks good for “77”. What people like you mean isn’t that someone is fully looking great, this is a way to express that you gatekeep women and their aging + you seem to have this idea that as long as someone isn’t showing their age (grey hair, many wrinkles, and have stayed at a norm weight), then they are qualified to get your “ok” approval. While you are stressing over this taught patriarchal standards for women, you are literally missing out on the true meaning of life. People are valid with or without youth or being youthful looking. I doubt you have ever expressed someone looks great who is close to 70 who might show physical signs of aging and might need assistance while walking (because that is a reality to with aging), and it truly doesn’t take away from the beauty of life. Trina, you’re a woman, so I bet you have been judged multiple times in life by people close and not close to you, please remember how that felt and kindly don’t do the same to other women by acting like a judge of wether they are beautiful looking or not/aging a certain way depending on where you believe they should look like based on their age. As women we don’t need to bow down and run the errands of emotionally immature and insecure men even if they have indoctrinated us to believe we should compare and judge other girls/women. We truly do not need to do that it serves no one❤ / Scandinavian

I'll never forget this, and how it's how I'll always think of Goldie. She told Barbara Walters how important it was to be humble. Now, I'm paraphrasing as best I can from memory: "I stand next to the Pacific Ocean and realize how small I am." Jeezus F. Chryst... she needs to stand next to an ocean to feel small.

[@annak1762]

My favourite movie with Goldie is still "Foul play". I remember seeing that movie at my friends home in the 80´s, they had a VCR, and a lot of movies recorded from television. It was a bit scary for a nine-ten year old to watch it, but it was sooo good, and so funny with great music. Stil love it!
