BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS (Blu-ray)

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas documents in rousing song and dance, a new Texas legend, which now joins the Alamo as a historical institution, immortalized in story, song, book, play and movie. The demise of the real-life Chicken Ranch inspired the hit stage musical, and now this boisterous big-screen adaptation headed by superstar Burt Reynolds (Smokey and the Bandit) as Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd and red-hot country legend Dolly Parton (9 to 5) as the Chicken Ranchs proprietress, Miss Mona. The two join together not only in romance, but to fight big-city TV crusader Melvin P. Thorpe (Dom DeLuise, The Cannonball Run) in his efforts to expose the Chicken Ranch to public scandal, and thus close it down.

Show-stopping musical numbers include Sneakin Around, Ha
