SO FINE (1981) Butt-out jeans commercial - Ryan O'Neal

[@jerrettfarmer]

A childhood memory you never knew you had comes roaring back.

[@annielux4625]

I was downstairs when the composer and Anita Morris (the redheaded main singer/dancer) and her husband Grover Dale were upstairs at the piano writing this song. :)

[@loiteringwithintent461]

Anita Morris is incredible! I love her in Absolute Beginners. Such a talent, and I wish she would have had more movie roles and bigger parts

[@violetmcguire4167]

My sister and I auditioned for that movie. Naturally we weren't chosen, but hey at least we can say we were a part of it!! Lol

[@jasonantigua6825]

My sister was the poster girl!

[@violetmcguire4167]

That's pretty cool.

[@jasonantigua6825]

Violet Mcguire She has a small part in it too! She also had a small part in 1 episode of Miami Vice!

[@violetmcguire4167]

@@jasonantigua6825 I checked out the video, I guess that's her on the poster and awesome Miami Vice. She's HOLLYWOOD!!

[@jacole439]

We drove down to the auditions when they had the casting call for all redheads. I read for it. But, nothing happened. I was too short for what they wanted. And, I read for Jaws II. But, I looked too old for the teenagers (I was 18!) I think they should be more descriptive of what they are seeking for the castings, before you get there....Unless you have an agent. Nice to chat with someone who was involved with it at the stage I was, too.

[@MissTia777]

LOL! I thought I would never see this movie again! I remember it when I was 12! It used to air on local TV! LOVE the song! Damn their butts were FLATTT!!! Could you imagine NOW? Those jeans with a Nicki Minaj or Kim Kardashian butt? lol

[@anoukcarswell6611]

+MissTia777 I know me too

[@peck404]

MissTia777 I know. Lookout sigh. . flat butts ..neither hips butt and thighs are rounded. straight leg.for real. French Jean cut.

[@anoukcarswell6611]

I thought the same thing

[@jacole439]

I went to LA to read for this movie. They had a casting call for all redheads. I wore my Oleg Cassini jeans and stood in line for a long time to get interviewed. I wish they would've stated a minimum height requirement before I spent all that time driving from the high desert. Short girls miss out on many opportunities. 👖

[@dhtsoaedsdhtnadi9575]

i like short redheads, but always seem to end up dating taller blondes. maybe if all the short reds started jumping up and down with your hands stretched high i might finally find one of you. *looks at clock and realizes it's probably so late my loving humor will be misunderstood. so i'll say it this way.... SHORT REDS RULE! (but seriously, i can never find a short red for a date)

I think the downfall was that perspiration can occur and there was no way to prevent it from showing.

[@AmyLSacks]

@@jacole439 I'd balk at losing back pockets, too. :/

[@angelotro]

Yeah, skip the sweaty plastic and just bare-ass it. Save the oceans.

[@kidlitfanful]

They considered it for like a minute, the person who mentioned perspiration was right. My parents had a friend who was a bartender and had to wear a pair one night when there was a special tie-in event with the movie, and people were asked to fill in surveys in whether they'd buy the jeans.

[@41devid69]

80's..., come back, come back

[@MoniBolis]

Thank you Threedoom, for bring this to my attention

[@Soulthinker2007]

Loved that segment! The red haired dancer was the late Anita Morris who played in the broadway production,"8". She was the dancer in the Rolling Stone's video "She is so Hot".

[@garytifeld660]

"9", not "8". :)

I remember her best from Ruthless People.

That explains in 84 and 91!😂

[@caseyvee4419]

Don't have to be Freud to get the symbolism in the jackhammer and burst pipe part. That woman in the phone booth is SO FINE, btw.

Man I haven't seen this since I was a kid

[@terriemrobinson]

actually it was real skin. I was there , did the commercial in the movie and we had use have hair dryers to de steam the plastic pockets. They kept steaming up every time we danced from sweating !

[@pandamonika]

How does the woman of colour have a whiter butt then?

[@pinkfreud62]

Maybe she wanted to wear underwear instead?? LoL. Kinda like guys with saggy pants do nowadays.

[@pandamonika]

You can also see the reflection of the street on what's clearly a piece of shiny plastic taped to the jeans, lol.

[@nancyfletcher4673]

Never saw that commercial before.. Very cute!

[@RobertoTheOriginalManFromTheA]

Never heard of this movie til last night...but this concept needs to marketed...Just for real women!

[@U2QuoZepplin]

This seems like such an accurate critique of current ideas in fashion and clothes. People are so desperate for ideas that this actually seems like a seriously believable idea. Fashion designers are so badly out of new ideas that actually work and aren't silly.

[@miamimann1]

remakes never do justice......just watch the originals and enjoy....

[@patriciaalleyne7677]

The old movie (So Fine) was and still is a funny movie. For the way things are in this world today we need more funny movies. But some how they love the song from that movie. But no one seems to play the movie. What happened to the movie. Netflix, amazon, nether one of these giant's carry this old movie. Shame, shame. I search on Amazon hoping to purchase it.
