Nuts is a 1987 American drama film directed by Martin Ritt and starring Barbra Streisand and Richard Dreyfuss. The screenplay by Tom Topor, Darryl Ponicsan, and Alvin Sargent is based on Topor's 1979 play of the same title. This was Karl Malden's final feature film before his death in 2009 and Robert Webber's final feature film before his death in 1989. It also included Leslie Nielsen's last non-comedic role.
When call girl Claudia Draper kills client Allen Green in self-defense, her mother Rose and stepfather Arthur attempt to have her declared mentally incompetent by Dr. Herbert Morrison in order to avoid a public scandal. Claudia knows that, if her parents succeed, she will be remanded to a mental institution indefinitely, so she is determined to prove she is sane enough to stand trial.
The attorney her parents hire to defend her quits after Claudia assaults him, so the court appoints public defender Aaron Levinsky to handle her case. She resists him as well until she finally accepts that he is on her side. Aaron begins to probe her background to determine how the child of supposedly model upper-middle-class parents could find herself in this situation, and with each piece of her past he uncovers he receives additional disturbing insight into what brought Claudia to this crossroads in her life. He discovers that she was sexually abused frequently by her stepfather as a young girl.

Starring Barbra Streisand and Richard Dreyfus (1987). The wonderful theme music was composed by Barbra, and plays over the end credits of the film.
Barbra Streisand is a mad high-priced "escort" accused of murder, but whether she's mad as hell or mad as a hatter is the question in this courtroom drama, adapted from the play by Tom Topor. While her doting, willfully uncomprehending mother (Maureen Stapleton) and stepdad with a secret (Karl Malden) try to have her judged incompetent and sent to an asylum, she fights for her day in court with the help of a hapless legal aid attorney (a refreshingly understated Richard Dreyfuss). James Whitmore presides over the hearing with a compassion and sense of justice that gives one faith in a system and la Streisand (who developed and produced the project) sinks her teeth into the tempestuous role like a starving actress. Genres: Drama and Adaptation Running Time: 1 hr. 56 min. MP...

Theres no place like this place anyplace
nuts
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I have a poodle named Bobby.
He likes to lick the chili.
He doesn't run on batteries,
But I wish he was a chimpanzee.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
Rosemary is my neighbor.
She likes to eat sweet meat.
She had a car that's brown and clean
And is also obsolete.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I'm grabbing my nuts.
I like to play with Legos.
My childhood is a bathos.
Would you please let go of my Eggo?
Or I'll kick you in the head-o.
