Gourt Home::Gourt :: Switch (film)
Switch is a 1991 film by Blake Edwards. Ellen Barkin plays a sexist, chauvinist man who is murdered and reincarnated as a beautiful woman.
Mystery Science Theater 3000
Although not a success at the box-office, this film was indirectly referenced numerous times throughout the long-running series Mystery Science Theater 3000. In the original television spots for the film, Jimmy Smits' name was announced in an unusual way: "Ellen Barkin. Switch. Jimmy Smits. Starts Friday." The writers of MST3K found it odd that Smits' name was announced after the title and not announced as "also starring Jimmy Smits" or "with Jimmy Smits", only as "Jimmy Smits". In various episodes, a character of the show would say "Jimmy Smits" without explanation and Smits became a running gag on the series.
