Outrageous Fortune Movie Review 1987

Two would-be actresses--one prim and innocent and one wildly trampy--chase after the same two-timing boyfriend and get involved in a dangerous CIA plot surrounding a deadly bacteria. Tired plot. Mediocre acting and formula jokes, but somehow still funny. Disney's first foray into comedy for grown-ups.
