Overboard is a movie starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell that was released in the fall of 1987. It was directed by Garry Marshall. Goldie Hawn is Joanna Stayton, the pampered wife of a pretentious socialite Grant Stayton III (Edward Herrmann).

But when Dean asks to be paid, he's blatantly turned down by the "nothing is ever good enough for me" Joanna.
