'Down And Out In Beverly Hills' is a remake of Jean Renoir's magnificent film, 'Boudu Saved from Drowning' (Boudu sauvé des eaux).

Bette Midler and Richard Dreyfuss star as Barbara and Dave Whiteman, a nouveau riche Beverly Hills couple whose entire household is turned upside down with one act of uncharacteristic generosity. On a typically sunny afternoon, Dave spies Jerry (Nick Nolte), a homeless man, attempting to drown himself in their swimming pool. Dave rescues Jerry and then invites him to stay with the family, shocking Barbara, his high maintenance wife; Max (Evan Richards), his disgruntled son; and Carmen (Elizabeth Peña), his unhappy mistress and maid. The Whiteman household is far from functional with an unsatisfying marriage, a son who communicates only through video footage, a daughter who has escaped to a faraway college, a doggy psychiatrist for their neurotic dog, and a constant stream of gurus for Barbara, who's trying to find inner peace.

Jerry's unexpected arrival injects a jolt of energy into the sterile Beverly Hills family. He's charismatic and charming, and before long he has Dave partying with his homeless buddies, Barbara acting out her own wild and crazy sexual fantasies, Max admitting to his private life, and Carmen inciting communist revolt. As Jerry becomes part of the Whiteman family, he thrills them, disappoints them, and ultimately reminds them of what it means to be a family.

This is an odd film. Nick nolte is a bum who tries to commit suicide in the pool of a rich beverly hills family but one of the rich people save him and the family takes him in. Nolte has a profound effect on the very uptight family. He changes around all their views on him and on each other. Bette midler is very funny especially when nolte is saved and when he helps her relieve some stress. She goes from being a big prude to being a bit better at least. This has quite a few funny scenes and i recommend you buy this
