Review of Goin' South (1978) by Judith Martin for Washington Post — 19 Jan 1985
A bucolic sex comedy in which Nicholson the director indulges Nicholson the star an orgy of coy monkey-shines in the role of a scruffy outlaw who enters into a marriage of convenience with a demure young woman who owns a ranch and a goldmine - expires right before your eyes from a terminal case of the feebles.
Goin' South is the most flat-footed comedy to collapse on the screen since Nickelodeon.
