About this movie

Everybody is cleaning up and getting down in the comedy Car Wash the first 'disco slacker' movie from the decade that brought you the tube top, the polyester suit and lots of good times. It's just a typical day in the lives of the employees, customers and passersby of a Los Angeles car wash but what a day! There's a would-be robbery... an assembly line of the weirdest, baddest, shadiest characters you've ever met... and lots of booty-bumping music to pass the hours until quitting time. Featuring outrageously hilarious performances by George Carlin, 'Professor' Irwin Corey, The Pointer Sisters, and Richard Pryor as Daddy Rich, a flamboyant Reverend who preaches the goodness of the dollar, Car Wash is a timeless classic celebrating an era devoted to living life in the fast lane.

If You Weren't Born In The 70's You Won't Fully Understand The Impact, Importance Of The Times, Or Star Power Of Those That Were Cast In This Movie ....... For Me, These Definitely Were The Good Ol' Days.
