Wissenswertes
While filming the ending scene, Burt Reynolds got a double hernia from picking up Dolly Parton. He often joked to Dolly that he'd think of her every time he got a pang of pain.

Patzer
When Miss Mona and the girls are singing the rules of the house, one of the rules is "no tattoos, because brands belong on cattle", but one of the girls clearly has a tattoo on her shoulder blade.

Zitate
Ed Earl: They want me to close her down, run her out of town. How can I ask her to leave when all I want her to do is stay?

Alternative Versionen
When this movie was first released in theatres, and on its first ABC TV airing, it featured Burt Reynolds singing a song (the song is in the scene immediately following his confrontation with Miss Mona, in which he orders her to shut down the Chicken Ranch). In the video release, and in the current TV version, that sequence has been removed. In the new version, Burt is seen briefly in a "contemplation" link sequence. The tune (written by Dolly Parton) which Burt originally sang on the movie was used in Dolly's "Rhinestone" movie. She wrote totally new words to the music and titled the song "God Won't Get You" (also a single release for Parton on RCA).

A fun and funny touching heartfelt musical that advocates and fights for the world's oldest profession.

Finally watched "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" and I must say fun musical with a story that's funny and the acting was true to heart with a theme that's real. And that is who really cares that the world's oldest profession exist hey legalize it! Based on a play set in Texas a house of prostitution known as the Chicken Ranch is on the verge of being shut down by a gossip type TV traveling hype salesman named Melvin Thorpe(Dom DeLuise)as it's his first goal to expose it's scandal. Yet the house's leading lady Miss Mona(Dolly Parton)joins forces with the local sheriff Earl Dodd(Burt Reynolds)to stop it's closing yet along the way the two join in a romance hopefully this all works out to save the girls and their jobs as they need to shine in their sexy colored bras and attractive underwear! Overall it's a fun journey with some great tunes the Parton and Reynolds chemistry is unmatched and the wonderful Jim Nabors is a treat as the narrator and future sheriff. Overall good little fun comedy!
