Buddy Hackett once said that the problem with Beverly Hills is, you go to sleep beside your pool one day and when you wake up you're 75 years old.
He is played by Nick Nolte as the kind of guy who didn't set out in life to be a failure, but just sort of drifted from one plateau down to the next one, until finally he was spending most of his time talking to his dog.
He didn't set out in life to be rich (one of his favorite conversational gambits involves his own good luck and assurances that it could have happened to you as easily as to him - nice if you are him, but not if you are you).

 Roger L. Simon: Bush Not "Down and Out in Beverly Hills"
A 22 percentage point increase in voting percentage for the Republican candidate in Beverly Hills is not the same thing as a 22 percentage point increase in Jews voting for the Republican candidate in Beverly Hills unless Beverly Hills is 100% Jewish.
Is it that, or is it that increase among Jews in Beverly Hills.
The truth is, deep down inside, most liberal Ashkenazi American Jews think that Jews who live in Israel are irresponsible and out of their minds for living in such a dangerous place and placing their children and grandchildren in danger.

She obviously never knew about the Beverly Loan Company, where other people's troubles not only hang on the wall, signed by artists like Chagall, Hockney and Miro, but also come in the guise of Rolex watches, gold cigarette cases and diamond necklaces.
Beverly Loan, says its co-owner Jean Zimmelman, is the oldest pawnshop in Beverly Hills, founded by her father, Louis, in 1938.
She was wearing a dark, conservative suit with a Van Cleef & Arpels pin (in the design of a standard poodle) and on her finger, a five-carat Asscher-cut diamond ring she bought as a present for herself.

 Down and out in Beverly Hills
Bette Midler and Richard Dreyfuss star as Barbara and Dave Whiteman, a nouveau riche Beverly Hills couple whose entire household is turned upside down with one act of uncharacteristic generosity.
The Whiteman household is far from functional with an unsatisfying marriage, a son who communicates only through video footage, a daughter who has escaped to a faraway college, a doggy psychiatrist for their neurotic dog, and a constant stream of gurus for Barbara, who's trying to find inner peace.
He's charismatic and charming, and before long he has Dave partying with his homeless buddies, Barbara acting out her own wild and crazy sexual fantasies, Max admitting to his private life, and Carmen inciting communist revolt.

 DVD Times - Down And Out In Beverly Hills
He doesn’t get the most out of his actors, especially Nolte and Dreyfuss, favouring the idea of the script’s power off the page rather than the actor’s ability to bring it to life.
It is as if Mazursky is trying to say that life in Beverly Hills is either lived as if it were constantly in front of a camera, or that the idea of being on show to the public governs their obsession with image.
All in all, Down And Out In Beverly Hills is a good satire on the rich people of Beverly Hills, however, its comedy comes in fits and starts and is never sustained, and the actors aren’t used to their full potential but Mazursky’s film retains an energy and quirky tone throughout, leaving plenty to enjoy.

Plot Synopsis: Beverly Hills couple Barbara and Dave Whiteman are very rich but not happy Dave is a hard working business man, his wife is only interested in yoga, aerobics and other meditation classes, and he sleeps with the house maid.
Featuring a neurotic dog, an anorexic daughter, a sexually confused son, and Little Richard as a neighbor, this riotous household and its strange yet sympathetic inhabitants are the ingredients for one of the freshest, funniest comedies in years.
Rescued from drowning in the swimming pool of a nouveau riche Beverly Hills couple (Richard Dreyfuss, Bette Midler), a disconsolate bum (Nick Nolte) brings startling and hilarious changes to the entire household -- including the family dog, Matisse (Mike the Dog), in the most uproarious screen debut of the year).

 TheStreet.com: Down and Out in Beverly Hills
The basic message from Wien and Cliggott is that we've just come from an incredible 18-year period in which, from 1982 to early 2000, pretty much everything went right for the U.S. economy and financial markets, and that we may now be headed for the corollary.
Wien led off by declaring that the U.S. economy is in a recession and that he believes it will last nine to 12 months vs. the consensus estimate for a six-month slowdown.
Cliggott was even more bearish, suggesting the Dow could be flat for seven to eight years, that U.S. could max out at 2% for the next five years, and that international equities, led by Latin America and Japan, are likely to outperform the U.S. for the next several years.
