Reboot of ’80s Cult-Classic ‘Overboard’ Washes Up on Netflix

The movie features Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn as a couple. Russell plays Dean, a carpenter hired to work on Hawn’s character Joanna’s yacht, but she’s constantly critical of his work. After Joanna falls off the yacht and loses her memory, Dean pretends to be her husband. The story follows Joanna, now calling herself Annie, as she adjusts to Dean’s messy, lower-class life and takes on the role of stepmother to his three energetic sons. Dean takes advantage of her amnesia and they begin a relationship, but when her actual family appears, her memory returns.
